The mission of Kettle Moraine Land Trust is to preserve and protect the natural heritage of the Southern Kettle Moraine region through land conservancy and resource management.
~~~ adopted February 8, 2020
We work to permanently protect critical and unique natural resources, and we connect people to nature close to home. It’s not enough to preserve land and wildlife habitat. We educate all generations about the importance of nature and healthy, diverse ecosystems.
