What We Do
CONNECTING PEOPLE & COMMUNITIES TO THE LAND
Kettle Moraine Land Trust (KMLT) protects beautiful lands and waters in Walworth County, Wisconsin. 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.
Working in partnership with communities and landowners to preserve land, so the awe and wonder of nature can inspire future generations.
