What We Do
Explore This Section
In this section you can dig deeper into the inner-workings of what we do at Jefferson Land Trust.
Protecting Land
Land Trusts are nonprofit conservation organizations that permanently protect land for habitat, community health, climate resilience, and economic benefits, such as to keep working lands open and productive.
While each land trust is unique, across the country, land trusts are saving land and harnessing the power of conservation to help make their communities stronger.
Caring for Protected Land
Jefferson Land Trust helps preserve land in perpetuity, ensuring that plants and wildlife can thrive in natural areas, that local farmland remains undeveloped and available to nourish our community, and that working forests can provide benefits for both people and wildlife.
Education
Providing education about the natural world is important to us. Increasing the community's knowledge of, appreciation for, and activity in the natural world deeply enriches the lives of those who live here while building sustained interest in and support for land and water conservation in Jefferson County.
