The Garden State Preservation Trust, which has made New Jersey a leader in preserving open space, historic sites and farmland over the past decade, is running out of funds.

Please consider sending a letter your State representatives and the Governor urging them to renew and strengthen the Trust as a wise investment in our communities.

New Jersey continues to face intense development pressure, losing approximately 50 acres of open space a day. And even the open spaces and historic sites that are protected suffer from insufficient funding and are often understaffed, poorly maintained and inaccessible to the public.

In order to ensure the acquisition of New Jersey’s treasures continues uninterrupted and that all residents can enjoy well-maintained, accessible natural areas in their communities, the State must renew and strengthen the Trust in 2007.

Thanks for your support!
