Building Community
Biodiversity for All Ages
By combining education and environmental management, Stewardship Sundays — led by WLCT’s youth interns — is an opportunity for people of all ages to get out there, improve the environment, meet like-minded folk, and take home some skills to apply in their yard and garden. All are welcome, come and join us!
"Our Spring and Fall Stewardship Sundays are a great opportunity to gather with friends and family, get into the fantastic outdoors and make a difference to our conserved properties. Wilton has such beautiful properties and it's really rewarding to take on the role of caretakers as a community!"
~ Marlen Clark, WLT
Stewardship Committee Chair
Being part of a community only starts with where you live, it continues with getting involved. WLCT contributes to the core of our town and being involved with this organization is wonderfully fulfilling."
