Conservation easement preserves 34 acres of woodland near Mount Gretna

The Lebanon Valley Conservancy has partnered with Brett and Janice Balmer to establish a conservation easement on their 34-acre property in West Cornwall Township. The Balmer family’s newly preserved property extends the forest habitat of the adjacent 1,105-acre Clarence Schock Memorial Park at Governor Dick and State Game Lands 145. According to the conservancy, it provides critical, uninterrupted habitat for local wildlife.
