Northern Waters Land Trust, formerly known as the Leech Lake Area Watershed Foundation, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization dedicated to preserving the lands and waters of Northern Minnesota. They work towards protecting important natural places and working lands forever, meeting national quality standards for land conservation. With a focus on preserving land to protect water, they have successfully safeguarded Kabekona Lake's watershed, ensuring clean water and beautiful landscapes for future generations.
The organization collaborates with various conservation organizations, landowners, and governmental bodies to achieve their goals. Supported by public and private funds, they have acquired land for public management and purchased conservation easements. Ongoing vigilance is required to maintain the protection of these lands against potential threats. With a new Executive Director, Annie Knight, at the helm, Northern Waters Land Trust continues to make strides in their conservation mission, building strong relationships with partners, stakeholders, and the community.
