Kinnickinnic River Land Trust

The Kinnickinnic River Land Trust (KRLT) is a nonprofit organization focused on preserving the scenic beauty, ecological integrity, and cultural significance of the Kinnickinnic River watershed in western Wisconsin. Through strategic land conservation, habitat restoration, and fostering partnerships, KRLT works to safeguard the river’s diverse ecosystems, which include critical cold-water habitats supporting native species like brook trout and endangered plants. By engaging the community in conservation efforts, including landowner partnerships and public education, KRLT aims to protect water quality, manage sustainable land use, and preserve open spaces for future generations. The trust is committed to creating lasting impact by maintaining the "Kinni" as a pristine natural resource, enhancing recreational opportunities, and inspiring environmental stewardship across the watershed.
