Protecting the lands and waters that make this place home.
Woods & Waters Land Trust protects forests, streams, wetlands, and working lands throughout the Lower Kentucky River watershed. We create opportunities for people to experience and connect with nature, because knowing and caring about the natural world inspires people to help protect it.
