Protecting Land in the Narrow River Watershed since 1982

The Narrow River Land Trust (NRLT) was founded in 1982, with the mission of preserving land in the Narrow River Watershed. We protect water and agricultural resources, wildlife habitat, and open space for recreation. Since our founding, we have conserved over 660 acres of land in the Narrow River Watershed, protecting land from development and degradation. We work cooperatively with the Narrow River Preservation Association, local towns and stakeholders to ensure the Narrow River watershed is protected for future generations.
