Wintonbury Land Trust was founded in 1982 and continues a proud tradition of grass roots leadership in the effort to protect and conserve natural resources in its community. The mission of the Land Trust is to promote the preservation, improvement, protection, and conservation of natural resources for the benefit of the community.

Our major goals are:

• Protection of natural resources, especially soil and water quality and woodland health.
• Conservation of farms and undeveloped land, e.g. woodlands, wetlands, and wildlife corridors, in Bloomfield and surrounding towns.
• Conservation of appropriate urban landscapes with respect to the community’s built environment.
• Connectivity with other community features (Greenways, wildlife corridors, trails, parks, and adjacent lands).
