We're growing in many ways!
​We are hiring a full time Stewardship Associate, responsible for monitoring and management of habitats and trails. The Stewardship Associate will work with both the Kent Land Trust (3 days/wk) and Warren Land Trust (2 days/wk).
We are also in need of a designer to create a connected landscape of recreational trails in the Lake Waramaug Watershed properties which include our East Kent Hamlet Nature Preserve, and Warren Land Trust's Cunningham Nature Preserve and newly acquired Mountain Lake Preserve
And, we are looking for summer interns--
The Kent Land Trust offers a paid college internship honoring Kelly Alisha Tobin. This conservation-focused program fosters personal and professional growth through hands-on experience not typically available in an academic setting. Several of KLT’s interns have gone on to further study and work in the conservation field.
In the past few years, interns conducted research on birds, insects, native plants, planned and hosted public programs and volunteer workdays, created outreach materials, and attended regional conservation gatherings including with other interns working in the area. They attended a board meeting, learned about nonprofit governance, and gained insight into legal aspects of land protection.
Or, Join us for a walk in the woods...

Local Food, Delicious and Healthy for You and the Planet
We proudly host Conundrum Farm on Route 7.
Come visit the farm stand and enjoy wonderful produce grown right where you can see it,
nestled in a lee of the Housatonic River and backed by the Appalachian Trail ridgeline.
In 2021, in response to the distressing increase in food insecurity in our region, KLT and our tenant farmer partnered to bring shares of fresh-picked produce each week to families served by Kent's Food Bank.
This year we will be expanding our initiative--Please consider supporting this effort!
