BLANDFORD — The Nature Conservancy bought 578 acres in Blandford earlier this week, furthering the goal of creating a way for wildlife to cross under the Mass Pike.
The fields and forests are filled only with the sounds of wildlife when visitors stick close to Chester Road in Blandford. But hike into the property, and the air fills with the rumble of traffic on the Massachusetts Turnpike, said Richard Cavanaugh, the land protection manager for The Nature Conservancy in Massachusetts.
