STEWARDS OF OUR LAND HELP CLEAR RECENT STORM DAMAGE

 

 

DARIEN LAND TRUST FIRST LAND DONATION IN 2010

A generous gift of one acre of open space by Lois and Greg Willis located on Arrowhead Way in Tokeneke has made a great start to the New Year for the Darien Land Trust. The property contains a healthy stream, majestic rock formations and upland forest habitat. The Willis' continue a strong family tradition of involvement in environmental protection. The great grandfather of Greg Willis was J. Sterling Morton, a former Secretary of Agriculture and founder of Arbor Day. This established April 10 as a tree planting holiday nationwide. The Darien Land Trust now preserves 190 acres of open space. Our mission is to preserve natural areas and open vistas for the community to enjoy in perpetuity.
