Reflecting on 30 years of the Nova Scotia Nature Trust: Bonnie Sutherland’s Journey

07 Mar 2025

As the Nature Trust marks 30 years of conservation, we reflect on the milestones that have shaped its enduring legacy. We sat down around our kitchen table with Executive Director Bonnie Sutherland. She shares personal stories from her nearly 30-year journey, from the early days of calling landowners one by one to pivotal moments like the protection of Partridge Island. Bonnie’s dedication and the inspiring people she met along the way have been instrumental in turning bold dreams into reality.
