New Strategic Plan
Northern Waters Land Trust has a new Strategic Plan and would like to thank everyone who worked on developing this plan: Board of Directors, Staff, Committee Members, and Judy Anderson with Community Consultants.
Mission
Preserve Land to Protect Water
Vision
Our unique region will have clean and resilient lakes, rivers, wetlands, and forests that support a diversity of fish and wildlife. We will leave this legacy for future generations by working with an engaged community and a diversity of conservation partners.

How We Conserve
