In March 2013, a decade after Ellen and Robert Miller donated KLT’s Flying Pond Farm conservation easement, Robin, Holly, and Lynette Miller conserved a second property in Vienna, the Peter Miller Woodland. This permanently conserved forestland with white pine, eastern hemlock, red spruce, balsam fir, red maple, brown and white ash, and white and yellow birch includes stone walls, woods roads and two small ponds. Robin, Holly, and Lynette’s gift honors the former owner, their brother, Peter Miller. In the winter of 2009, Peter died of injuries sustained in a wood-cutting accident. KLT is honored to conserve this special place for the land itself, for wildlife, and for the people who will enjoy it.
