Our Mission

In 1995 The Kingsburg Coastal Conservancy formed in response to an alarming increase in coastal development along Nova Scotia's South Shore. The KCC is a charitable, non-governmental, community land trust. We work to preserve headlands, beaches, and wetlands on the Kingsburg Peninsula and neighbouring areas (near Lunenburg) and to safeguard traditional access to shorelines. The Kingsburg Coastal Conservancy depends on private giving and volunteer effort, and over the years has established a solid record both for fundraising and for managing land donations.
