Mission Statement
WRLF Mission
The Mission of the WRLF is to conserve the rural character of Williamstown; to enable working landscapes such as forests and farms; to promote land stewardship; and to connect the community to the region’s natural heritage.
On a selective basis and as our resources permit, the WRLF also cooperates with other organizations to support affordable farming and housing projects.
Statement of Philosophy
Recognizing the pressures on land use and also recognizing the rights of individual property owners, we believe that it is imperative to preserve and maintain the rural New England character of Williamstown and the surrounding area for present and future generations. Change is inevitable and it is the foundation’s aim to influence its direction to benefit all members of the community.
