Land Preservation Across the Nation

Preservation projects may differ widely. Options may include:

• Land permanently protected from development.
• Land preserved to be used by the general public for outdoor recreation or scenic enjoyment.
• A natural habitat for fish, wildlife, plants or similar ecosystem protected.
• Open space, including farmland and forest land, preserved for its ecological benefits to the entire community.
• A historically important structure or land area conserved.

While investigating and assisting in land conservancy successes across the nation, we have found that each project differs depending on the goals of the landowners and other interested parties. The result may be a complex multi-faceted solution. The following examples present a broad range of conservancy solutions.
