Keeler Bay Property (1998 & 2001)

A total of 190 acres of hay fields and forest were protected when landowner Randall Munson generously donated a conservation easement to the Lake Champlain Land Trust. Working with the Lake Champlain Land Trust and South Hero Land Trust, Randall Munson initially donated an easement on 138 acres of land in December 1998. An additional 54 were acres conserved in December 2001. In addition to the property's agricultural and scenic value, the Keeler Bay Parcel also contains several types of wildlife habitat including wetland areas, softwood cover, and several snags and cavity trees. Thanks to Randall Munson's generosity an important agricultural resource is now permanently protected.
