- Stewardship of our current land holding in town consisting of 14 preserves totaling 335 acres and approximately 50 additional acres conserved through conservation easements held in partnership with the Westchester Land Trust.
- Community education on land conservation and natural resource protection through guided, educational walks, seminars/talks given by expert guests, demonstration and hands-on projects, informative articles published locally and online on land conservation issues , and other targeted educational outreach.
- Through mapping efforts, identifying strategic parcels of land in town that contribute to the scenic beauty, biotic diversity and semi-rural character of Pound Ridge with the goal of preserving them in their natural state.
- Working cooperatively with other local land protection organizations and town agencies and boards on land conservation through advocacy, education, outreach and demonstration projects that promote local land and natural resource protection.
