Habitat Restoration Resources

Find the tools you need to restore and manage Massachusetts habitats for biodiversity and climate resilience.

Land protection is essential, but protection alone is not enough to conserve the state’s rich diversity of wildlife and plants. In today's human-altered landscape, many habitats need active restoration and management to remove invasive species, restore natural processes, mitigate changes to water quality or quantity, and address other threats. Use the tools on this page to learn about and plan habitat restoration.

Habitat restoration resources are now part of BioMap

BioMap is a powerful tool for strategic land protection and stewardship in Massachusetts. It also provides detailed habitat management and restoration planning tools.
