Blue Hill Community Development Blue Hill Community Development Save the Salt Pond Blueberry Barrens Blue Hill Community Development is pleased to announce its most recently approved sponsored project Save the Salt Pond Blueberry Barrens. Here is an excerpt from the project description Save the Salt Pond Blueberry Barrensis a grassroots effort to protect and preserve the Allen Point blueberry barrens on Route 172 in Blue Hill near the Sedgwick line for future generations. Considered one of the most iconic views on the Peninsula the 38acre parcel was a commercial blueberry field for decades until 2023 when it was sold to Geoff Bowley a developer from Kennebunk with plans to create a 9home subdivision. The community expressed its serious opposition to this development at two public Planning Board meetings in 2024 in letters to the editor and in news coverage.
