Aqueduct Foundation is proud to announce a major land conservation and future public access project in Portugal Cove-St. Philips, Newfoundland and Labrador.

On behalf of an anonymous donor, Aqueduct Foundation acquired a 68-acre parcel of land in Portugal Cove-St. Philips for $3.25 million in December 2025. The intention of the project is to permanently preserve the land and, over time, convert it into a publicly accessible space, such as a park.

Aqueduct Foundation will hold the land over the next one to three years, working collaboratively to identify the right local partners and long-term stewardship structure to ensure the land is conserved in perpetuity and remains accessible to the public.
