Kleinstuck Preserve is a large preserve that is centrally located in Kalamazoo with an incredibly diverse ecosystem of plants and animals. In 2019, a parcel adjacent to the preserve went on the market. The volunteer board members held a community meeting to see if residents of Kalamazoo found value in making this addition to Kleinstuck. Can these volunteers raise $700,000 in time to purchase the forest before a developer picks up the beautiful property? Our guests share an incredible story of community organizing, about a place that is cherished by all who visit. Learn more about the important ecosystem of Kleinstuck as well.
