Help Us Support Nature in Threatened Spaces

Our mission is to create nature reserves along the Niagara Escarpment, allowing for sustainable, low impact recreation. We work closely with landowners, government and community groups and other environmental organizations to attain our goals and we encourage participation to make as much of an impact as possible. You can help us by donating time or money so that we can make even more of a difference.

Donate Money

We work to continue protecting natural spaces of ecological significance by securing one property a month. Each $50 donated will:

  • Protect about $5,000 worth of donated land (we pay the related expenses)
  • Conserve about an acre of land
  • Contribute $1,800/year of ecosystem services
  • Sequester 7 tonnes of CO2 every year
  • Make a great annual return on investment
