Rooted in Vermont since 1977, Vermont Land Trust unites land and lives for the enduring benefit of people and the place we share. We have conserved farms, forests, trails, and natural areas covering over 11% of the state?land that contributes to our abundance of food and forest products, tourism and recreation, and community vitality. Partnering with landowners, communities, and all Vermonters, we work for a future where land and lives, in all of their diversity, can thrive.
