Together with the support of the community, the Land Trust has created and opened 16 public nature preserves that provide the backdrop for our daily lives; protected almost 28,000 acres of wildlife habitat and working lands; restored over 19 miles of rivers and streams; and fostered a love for nature to ensure these places are cherished for generations. \u201cThis anniversary is a reflection of all that we\u2019ve been able to accomplish with the help of our community,\u201d says Amy Trujillo, executive director of the Land Trust, \u201cand also a recognition of the work still to be done and our continued commitment to protecting the wild spaces and happy places important to our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Wood River Land Trust invites the community to celebrate this shared commitment throughout the year at events sponsored in part by local businesses and organizations, that encapsulate the spirit of community connectivity that the Land Trust values.
