Did you know Northeast Connecticut is home to several amazing land trusts working every day to protect our forests, farms, wildlife, and rural character?
These groups keep the Quiet Corner wild, walkable, and beautiful — and they’re right here in our backyard. I did some research this morning to provide you with some interesting and possibly useful information .

How You Can Protect Your Own Land
You can work with a land trust to:
• Create a conservation agreement that keeps your land undeveloped forever
• Donate or sell land for permanent protection
• Get guidance on preserving forests, fields, and wildlife habitat
• Volunteer or become a member to support local conservation.
Local land, protected forever. That’s something worth celebrating here in the Quiet Corner. It’s what makes Northeast CT what it is and what it will always be!
