Building Community
Biodiversity for All Ages
By combining education and environmental management, Stewardship Sundays — led by WLCT’s youth interns — is an opportunity for people of all ages to get out there, improve the environment, meet like-minded folk, and take home some skills to apply in their yard and garden. All are welcome, come and join us!
"Conservation activities organized by the WLCT have been a great opportunity to teach my children to appreciate nature and value community service."
~ Justin Phillips, WLCT
Stewardship Committee Chair
Being part of a community only starts with where you live, it continues with getting involved. WLCT contributes to the core of our town and being involved with this organization is wonderfully fulfilling."
Mike Conway, WLCT
