We’re pleased to kick off 2011 with the announcement of another successful preservation effort. Bob Jones, the owner of Winnewald Day Camp in Clinton Twp, has donated a conservation easement to the Land Trust. The conservation area encompasses 19 acres of forest and wetlands, and includes Prescott Brook. Mr. Jones decided to preserve his land because he hopes it will always be a place for children to connect with nature.
“Every acre we protect in Hunterdon County gives current and future residents the gifts of clean air and water, peaceful forests, diverse wildlife, and locally produced food,” said Margaret Waldock, Executive Director of the Hunterdon Land Trust. “Preserving Winnewald Day Camp is especially meaningful because this is the very place that many Hunterdon residents have learned to value nature.”
