"The new conservation area — a 52-hectare (128-acre) piece of land adjacent to Blooming Point beach — holds within it Acadian forest, freshwater wetland, salt marsh and dunes.
The MacGillivray family of Blooming Point donated a portion of the project as part of the Government of Canada's Ecological Gifts Program.
The piece of land is also "an internationally recognized Important Bird Area," the NCC said in the release."
