The mission of the Western Virginia Land Trust is "promoting the conservation of Western Virginia's natural resources--farms, forests, waterways and rural landscapes." Since 1996, WVLT has helped landowners permanently protect more than 56,000 acres with conservation easements and donations or purchases of land.

Join the Western Virginia Land Trust to financially support our on-going efforts to "Save Our Scenery." Landowners, click here for information about saving your land from development.
