Wolf Den Land Trust
(Ashford, Brooklyn, Scotland, Hampton, Killingly, Eastford, Thompson, Windham)
I didn’t know this land trust existed (despite maintaining a list of the ten-million or so that we have in Connecticut) until putting the finishing touches on my “Completing Ashford” page.
You must forgive me, as I thought that Joshua’s Trust had this part of the state on Land Trust lockdown.
WDLT’s Blue Flag Property – I stole the picture from somewhere
Wolf Den Land Trust was founded in 1984 to provide “demonstration forests” that employ stewardship practices that protect both forest and wildlife habitat. We currently hold 17 parcels totaling more than 885 acres. All are actively managed by professional foresters and are open to the public for passive recreation.
We are an organization run by forest owners, for forest owners! We are not trying sell anything but the concept of being a good steward of your land. ECFLA/Wolf Den Land Trust represents nearly 300 forest owners and their families who actively manage approximately 20,000 acres of woodlands and associated ponds, streams and wetlands. Nearly 10% of our current membership lives outside of Connecticut but has found a connection with who we are and what we do.
Okay, so the WDLT is a little bit different. That’s cool. Let’s see what they have to hike…
