Pennsylvania's Kittatinny Ridge is one of five new U.S. Sentinel Landscapes. These are areas comprised of natural and working lands around military installations. This designation opens new opportunities for land and water conservation, protecting climate resilient areas, and expanding regional partnerships. Central Pennsylvania Conservancy has a long history of protecting the Kittatinny Ridge and we look forward to accomplishing more through the Sentinel Landscape program. https://lnkd.in/ezidZyhp
