The New England Heritage Breeds Conservancy (NEHBC) is a nonprofit organization, located in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, dedicated to preserving and promoting livestock breeds that are native to the Northeast region. The NEHBC focuses on rare, heritage breeds of livestock that are traditionally raised on small family farms. These breeds are often at risk of extinction due to the increasing modernization of agriculture, which often favors larger, more efficient breeds.

The NEHBC is committed to preserving and promoting the region’s heritage breeds through education, research, and advocacy. The organization also works to promote sustainable agriculture, as well as to provide resources for farmers and ranchers who are interested in preserving and raising heritage breeds. The NEHBC provides educational materials and programs, such as the Heritage Breed Forum, that allow for the exchange of information about heritage breeds. Additionally, the organization facilitates access to breeding stock and helps connect farmers with resources to raise and market their products.

The NEHBC works to promote the conservation of heritage breeds in the Northeast region. By preserving these breeds and the traditional ways of raising them, the organization contributes to the sustainability of the agricultural industry in the region. Additionally, the NEHBC works to ensure that these breeds and their associated traditions are passed on to future generations.
