Connecticut's Land Trusts
Land Trusts at a Glance
Land trusts are abundant in our state preserving properties of all sizes from development. There are 117 organizations that serve to protect natural resources by secure hiking and recreation, ecological buffer zones, and open spaces.
Land trusts are mostly non-profit and community based, seeking to preserve the forests, river corridors, farmland, watersheds, parklands, marshes, scenic vistas, and hiking trails in a given town or region. Land Trust are also largely volunteer operated and are a great way to get involved in your area.
