We’re hiring! FSM is seeking to add a Forestland Steward to our team.

This is a full-time, exempt position that will be primarily based in our Bangor office with an anticipated start date of June 1, 2026. Applications are due no later than 5 p.m. April 17, 2026.

Why work with us? FSM is a team of like-minded individuals who care of the future of Maine’s North Woods, with its 5,000 lakes, more than 4,000 acres of canoeable rivers and streams, its 12 million acres of productive forestlands, and its abundance and diversity of wildlife.

Join FSM at the Maine Science Festival!

March 11, 2026 By Kassie

Join FSM at the Maine Science Festival, March 28th, 2026 for Forests: Sanctuaries for Dark!
Many of us have marveled at the glittering view of the cosmos from our favorite isolated spot. But one local man took his passion for stargazing to the next level and constructed an astrophotography lab to observe and record deep space objects. Forests: Sanctuaries for Dark is a celebration of his breathtaking images and a reflection on why Maine, with its millions of acres of undeveloped, unlit forests, remains a haven for dark skies on the East Coast.

Presented by Bryan Wells maineforest – find more of his work here: https://wellsforest.com/

The Maine Science Festival will take place March 25-29 at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor, ME. The presentation on how the images are created will begin at 1:30 PM, but the images will be on view all day. See you there!
