Peconic Land Trust: 2022 Match Goal Reached — THANK YOU! for Supporting Conservation

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MATCH GOAL REACHED!

I could not be more excited to tell you – WE DID IT!! Because of the huge outpouring of support from the Trust community, in just 15 days we were able to reach our match goal of $300,000 – thank you!

Our work is only possible because of your support. This year your generous gifts helped us reach more than just our $300,000 match goal. Each year, the Trust community provides the bulk of our annual $4.5 million operating budget. Your gifts give future generations the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful place we call home. They also allow us to:

• Conserve productive farmland and working farms.
• Revitalize coastal ponds through research and remediation.
• Preserve land sacred to Long Island’s indigenous people.
• Protect and restore fragile shorelines, wetlands, and woodlands.
• Engage diverse communities with bilingual signage and accessible trails.
• Provide training, mentorship, and support for new and existing farmers.
• Make conservation relevant and land accessible to you and all people.

It’s a wonderful feeling to know that we can always count on our friends and community to help reach our goals. You understand the value of protecting our local farms and natural resources. Thank you for supporting conservation on Long Island! Happy New Year!

With gratitude,
