On Thursday, March 19th, 2009, the Washtenaw Land Trust officially became the Legacy Land Conservancy, at an event celebrating land conservation and local foods. The “Legacy of Trust” gala raised $19,000 for protecting local nature and farmland.
The full-course dinner and program, held at Cobblestone Farm in Ann Arbor, featured guest speaker Rand Wentworth, the President of the national group Land Trust Alliance.
The Legacy Land Conservancy extends its thanks to the many individuals and organizations who made this event possible.
