Nature notebook
This photo illustrates a natural space in the Kingston area where we
are working with the landowners on a perpetual land protection
agreement.
The property is mostly undeveloped, and has a long shoreline on a
quiet lake. It could be a stepping-stone to protection of an
important nature corridor.
Keeping nature near... always
We are working to protect natural spaces in Frontenac County and
Lennox and Addington County, Ontario, Canada.
How do we protect natural spaces?
We accept gifts of land, negotiate land protection agreements with
propertyowners, and promote land stewardship practices.
Who are we?
We are a local registered charity with an 11 member board of directors
and over 80 members.
Do you want to join us?
We welcome new members.
We have an active Land Acquisition Committee which is always looking
for members to help with land monitoring and stewardship projects.
Do you wish to donate to us?
We seek funding for land acquisition and for stewardship of lands we
already protect through ownership or conservation easements.
Please
contact us if you are interested in discussing a major bequest or gift.
We welcome smaller donations as well. With smaller
donations, you may give by credit card through CanadaHelps.org.

The Land Conservancy for Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington has
partnered with the Community Foundation for Kingston and area to
establish a Natural Areas Protection Fund directed toward stewardship
of protected lands. Each donation to this fund may attract
additional funds from the Community Foundation and the Ontario Land
Trust Alliance. The Natural Areas Protection Fund is managed by
the Community Foundation on behalf of the Land Conservancy, and income
from the fund is directed toward our stewardship of protected lands.
