Our operating region consists of over 1,500 square miles, encompassing portions of the Delaware, Raritan and Millstone River watersheds and the Delaware & Raritan Canal. This includes Mercer, Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Burlington and Monmouth counties. We have broadened our work to include preservation of farm land in Salem County in the area of Mannington Meadows. D&R Greenway Land Trust\'s mission is to: 1)Preserve and protect a permanent network of natural lands and open spaces, creating the conditions for a healthy and diverse environment to flourish 2)Provide the public with appropriate access to these areas, encouraging active lifestyles and a greater appreciation of the natural world 3)Inspire a conservation ethic promoting policies, educational programs and partnerships that result in a public commitment to land preservation
