    Conserve and Care For Northwest Connecticut's Lands and Waters

    Across Northwest Connecticut, important forests, farms, and rivers still need protection. NCLC is working to conserve them, care for lands already protected, and open four new nature preserves totaling more than 1,100 acres for the public to enjoy.

    But our work can’t start without your support.  No matter how much you choose to give, 100% will fund NCLC’s conservation work across the region. And through December 31, your gift will go twice as far thanks to a generous $100,000 matching challenge.

    Thank you for helping conserve and care for the lands and waters that make Northwest Connecticut so special.
