Peconic Land Trust works with the community to conserve the places we know and love on Long Island. Mission: The Peconic Land Trust conserves Long Island's working farms, natural lands, and heritage for our communities now and in the future. Impact: The conservation of working farms, natural lands, and heritage is closely inter-connected to many benefits that are important to all us who know and love the area ~ fresh local produce, miles of hiking trails, clean and productive bays and wetlands, drinking water protection, strong local economy, healthy ecosystems, storm water protection and buffer against effects of climate change, free public garden, historic preservation, lower property taxes (because of undeveloped land), and continued enjoyment of this unique region for generations to come.
