Conserve Your Land
Private landowners play a central role in the protection of our natural landscapes. Land in private ownership provides vital habitat for wildlife, clean air and water, and scenic, economic, and other benefits. ALC understands that landowners sometimes face challenging decisions in fulfilling their vision for the land. If you are a landowner and are considering a conservation outcome for your property, ALC can help.
Choose the Option that Works for You
By working with ALC, you can choose the most appropriate tool to protect your land. There are a number of options, including the sale or donation of a conservation easement that permanently restricts development; the sale, “bargain sale" or donation of your property; as well as several variations. We also encourage you to seek legal and financial advice to ensure that your decision fits your family’s long-term plans. Learn more about options to Sell or Donate Land.

ALC Will Help You Realize Your Goals
Since its inception, American Land Conservancy has worked with landowners to protect hundreds of thousands of acres across the United States. From negotiating and completing the largest and most complex conservation easement transaction in California, the Hearst Ranch project, to the outright purchase of properties for public acquisition, ALC brings to the table tremendous experience and perspective. In every project we take on, ALC’s friendly and dedicated staff provides landowners with the personal attention they need to make the right decision for their property and see that their goals are realized.
