Once we have secured a property, the next step is to create a stewardship management plan for the nature preserve.
Our stewardship department creates the management plans, ensures boundary monitoring and flora and fauna surveys, and works with local volunteers and conservation experts to find ways to best steward the nature preserve.
We also work with neighbours of the preserve, individuals, and community groups to establish land stewards who look after the preserve and keep the Nature Trust up to date on any changes to the property, as well as to establish “Friends of..." stewardship groups.
Land stewards and stewardship volunteers are the Nature Trust’s eyes and ears on our preserves, and with their help, we can use this information to make effective and integral plans of action for the perpetual management of the nature preserves.
Our stewards dedicate their time to maintain, manage, and care for our protected lands. Stewardship is not only about monitoring and cherishing the land, it also connects others to nature, and enhances the quality of life for future generations.
