“As a land trust born from the Norfolk Field Naturalists, this generous donation is a poignant reminder of the strong partnership and shared dedication to conservation that binds our organizations,” Levick said in a media release. “We are profoundly grateful for the Norfolk Field Naturalists’ continued support, which enables us to make a lasting impact on the preservation of our natural landscapes and biodiversity.”
The donation will support the land trust’s recent acquisition of the Fishers Creek Nature Reserve, allowing for the protection and restoration of critical habitats on the property, and the creation of a wildlife corridor.
“Our membership is delighted to contribute $100,000 to the Long Point Basin Land Trust,” said Bernie Solymar, president of the Norfolk Field Naturalists. “Our partnership is a beacon of collaboration and dedication to the environment and we are confident this donation will further advance the crucial work of the LPBLT in safeguarding our natural treasures.”
