Who are we?

 The richness and diversity of our natural environment is our shared heritage.  The soils, water, plants, and animals - collectively the land - have been the raw materials from which this country was built.  Like the winds and sunsets, these things were taken for granted until progress began to destroy them. Now we face the question of whether progress, with its accompanying price in environmental destruction, pollution, noise and crowding is worth its cost in things natural, wild and free.

The Killingworth Land Conservation Trust is an effective way for our town to preserve our natural assets which might otherwise disappear.  As a private, non profit service organization set up to operate on a local basis, we can operate in areas where it might be impractical for the town to act.  For example, we can acquire pockets of open space of great value​ to the public but too small or too numerous for the town's consideration.

Please help preserve Killingworth's special rural quality and natural history by joining the Killingworth Land Conservation Trust.  Paypal is accepted through the link below.
