Norcross Wildlife Sanctuary is an 8,000-acre refuge in Monson, Massachusetts, founded by Arthur Norcross in 1939 to preserve, protect, and propagate native plants and animals. Much of the sanctuary lies within the Quinebaug Highlands, part of the larger Eastern New England Uplift. The refuge includes 2.5 miles of trails and offers programs year-round. It is part of the Norcross Wildlife Foundation, whose loans and grants have supported the preservation of more than 33,000 acres since 1939.
