Birds of a Feather Auction Together – let’s bid together!

The countdown is on! The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust’s (MMLT) birdhouse fundraiser auction, Birds of a Feather Auction Together, is back and bigger than ever—going LIVE from April 15–30.

Thanks to an incredible outpouring of support from builders, artists, and nature lovers, we have received over 70 one-of-a-kind birdhouses and avian-inspired art pieces—each a masterpiece designed to bring beauty and function to your backyard.

Your participation supports MMLT’s vital work in protecting ecologically significant lands and creating safe havens for birds and wildlife. This year, we’re aiming to raise $7,500 to help conserve more natural spaces—and every bid brings us closer to that goal.
