🌊We are all connected by water. Property lines and town borders may divide us, but water as it flows through and around the Island, connects us. Nature is not parceled or partitioned. Even trees are communicating, cooperating, and sharing through hidden networks beneath the soil. In a time of division and isolation, if we look to nature, we see the truth of connection and our shared fate. Water connects us as it flows downstream into our ponds and ocean, our places of peace, reflection and nourishment. 💧 Now is the moment for our community to protect the water that connects us. ✨ Let’s end 2025 with a spark of hope and a commitment to the work ahead. 👉 Tap the link in bio to give. Your gift today will sustain our living waters, advance science, and inspire future generations to safeguard these precious ecosystems. #ConnectedByWater #ProtectOurPonds #IslandLife #GreatPondFoundation #grateful #December #pond #water #frozen #winter #MarthasVineyard
