**Overview**
Kawartha Land Trust (KLT) is a dynamic land conservation charity with an impressive track

land they love in the Kawarthas. We create nature reserves for future generations by acquiring
ecologically important properties and/or interests in properties. We also enhance our
stewardship of the land by engaging landowners in land care initiatives through our Partners in
Conservation program.
Founded in 2001, KLT protects 31 properties that include more than 5,250 acres of ecologically
diverse lands, some of which include hiking trails that introduce thousands of people to nature in
the Kawarthas every year. We have achieved our successes through the work of our dedicated
and growing team of donors, volunteers and supporters. Together, we can ensure more natural
spaces in the Kawarthas are preserved forever.
KLT works within the Treaty 20 Michi Saagiig Territory and we are dedicated to continuing to
create meaningful connections and relationships with First Nations communities in our region as
we build upon these connections.
