The Kinnickinnic River Land Trust (KRLT) is a 501(c)3 local land trust dedicated to working with the community to protect the natural resources and scenic beauty of the Kinnickinnic River watershed.
Based in River Falls, Wisconsin, we work in cooperation with landowners, private organizations, and governmental units to conserve the resources we value - clean water, wildlife, recreation, natural areas, wild trout, scenic beauty, and family farms.
We have “501(c) 3 non-profit charity status.” This means that gifts to KRLT (membership dues, cash gifts, property, or development rights) can qualify the donor for a Federal Income Tax deduction. Since our founding in 1993, the KRLT has grown to over 600 members and we have protected over 2,000 acres and over 8 miles of river bank.
Our mission is to work with the community to protect the natural resources and scenic beauty of the Kinnickinnic River watershed.
