In February 2024, NICHES Land Trust expanded Williams Woods preserve by 124 acres!
Williams Woods now totals 240 acres and is our 6th largest property (Largest in order: Shawnee Bottoms, Farris Estate, Weiler-Leopold complex, Granville Sand Barren Complex, Fisher Oak Savanna). This expansion was made possible by substantial grant funding through the Next Level Conservation Trust (NLCT) and the generosity of the Williams Siblings, the Whistler Foundation, the Warren County Community Foundation, the Geoff and Josie Fox Family Foundation, the Central Indiana Land Trust, and the Ropchan Foundation.
Stewardship Manager Justin Harmeson recently highlighted the role community plays within the organization in a personal post:
