Stand for the Land – a bold Land Trust campaign to safeguard critical habitat before it’s gone – has placed down payments on 66 acres (across four properties) of ecologically significant Island land.
Now, a small group of conservation-minded Islanders has come forward with a new, incredibly generous $1,000,000 challenge grant! They’ll match every dollar we raise through Spring 2020 for a total of $2 million – but we absolutely need your help to get there.
The Bainbridge Island Land Trust’s mission is to preserve and steward the diverse natural environment of Bainbridge Island for the benefit of all. To achieve this goal, the Land Trust acquires interests in land having significant or potentially significant conservation values such as scenic vistas, wetlands, open spaces, tidelands, forest, unique plant and animal habitats and stream and wildlife corridors. We work with private landowners to protect their land using land protection agreements called conservation easements. We also work with a variety of partners to acquire land for preserves, parks, trails and public use.
