Support the Land
The Case for Giving
Many conservation models focus primarily on protection. Wilde Land adds an active educational and stewardship layer — where students help restore, study, and care for the land over time.
That is a different kind of conservation. It requires more: more infrastructure, more coordination, more sustained commitment. And it produces something that passive protection cannot — a generation of people who have actually done the work, on real land, with real consequences.
Donors who support Wilde Land are not funding a program. They are funding a proof of concept: that conservation and education belong on the same land, at the same time, for the same reasons.
Kimbercote is that proof. Your gift helps build it.
"The land is the lesson. The students are the stewards. Your support is what makes both possible."

Ways to Support
A direct gift supports land stewardship, ecological restoration, native species production, trail care, and student stewardship work at Kimbercote and future Wilde Land properties.
Direct your gift toward specific restoration work — habitat restoration, invasive species removal, native planting, or trail and watershed care.
If you own land and are thinking about its long-term protection, we welcome a conversation about conservation options and what the Wilde Land model might make possible.
Organizations, foundations, and community partners can work with Wilde Land to support conservation, education, and ecological stewardship in a sustained and specific way.
Support the growing of native plants for local ecosystem restoration — from seed collection and greenhouse propagation through to field planting on Escarpment land.
Help fund the tools, materials, and time that allow students to do real ecological monitoring, inventory, and restoration work — not simulations of it.
Trails, meadows, forest edges, wetlands, and riparian zones all need ongoing care. Your support helps maintain and restore these systems over time.
Support the Land
Your support does more than protect land. It puts children to work on it — learning science, practicing stewardship, and building a direct relationship with the natural world.
