Protect Your Share of Habitat in the Frontenac Arch!
You can protect critical habitat in the globally important Frontenac Arch area of eastern Ontario by helping us grow our Gananoque Lake Nature Reserve. Your gift today will help to permanently protect a 58-acre property adjacent to our existing nature reserve, which features shorelines, wetlands and interior forests. This area has become a refuge for species that are highly endangered elsewhere in Ontario, like cerulean warbler and gray ratsnake. We’re more than halfway to reaching our fundraising goal, and we hope you’ll join us in this significant conservation effort!
