Who We Are

Leominster for Responsible Growth began as a group of neighbors fighting to protect the Orchard Hill wetlands. What started as a local effort to save a single piece of land has grown into a citywide movement for transparency, sustainability, and accountability in how Leominster develops.

We are residents, business owners, and lifelong community members who believe that progress should not come at the expense of the environment, public trust, or the character of our city. Too many projects have been pushed through without proper oversight or input, leaving residents to deal with the long-term consequences of poor planning, flooding, and overdevelopment.


The massive project proposed at 86 Orchard Hill Park Drive is only the beginning. 66 more acres surrounding the site remain at stake under the same dense zoning allowance. What happens here will set the tone for the future of Leominster's growth, and we refuse to let short-term profit determine the city's long-term wellbeing.

Our Mission

Advocate for responsible planning that respects wetlands and wildlife, protects neighborhoods, and ensures that the voices of Leominster's citizens are heard in every stage of development.

Our Focus

The fight to stop the Orchard Hill project is at the heart of our work, not only because of its environmental risks, but because it exposes a deeper problem: a system that too often listens to developers before listening to the people who actually live here.
