Our Mission

The Couchiching Conservancy is a non-profit, non-government organization dedicated to protecting the natural features of the Couchiching Region for future generations.

About THE COUCHICHING CONSERVANCY

Since 1993, we have helped protect over 13,000 acres of special natural lands in central Ontario; north Simcoe County and Carden Township, City of Kawartha Lakes.

Properties and conservation easements have been donated to us by individuals with a great love for nature. We also manage properties owned by the Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Ontario Heritage Foundation.

Our goal is to protect natural lands by:

• accepting donations of significant lands to manage as nature reserves

• entering into conservation easements with willing owners to legally restrict future development

• working cooperatively with other organizations to acquire or manage ecological lands

• engaging private landowners and volunteers in positive conservation actions

• increasing local knowledge and awareness about natural heritage conservation

Testimonials

"The Couchiching-Severn landscapes form the backdrop of our family’s life and history, and as such are a part of who we are. Our adult children return here to reconnect with the natural spaces they call “home”. It’s a comforting and reassuring feeling to be part of this initiative. I know that our grandchildren’s grandchildren will appreciate it." testimonial 19
