Find a Land Trust

The Manchester Land Conservation Trust preserves open-space lands in Manchester, Andover, Bolton, East Hartford, Glastonbury, and Vernon (click the “Trust Properties” tab above to see a listing). We always welcome new members. We are an all-volunteer organization with a board of directors, officers, committees, and several hundred members. The Trust accepts donations of undeveloped land as gifts from individuals or businesses, and occasionally buys land which would otherwise be sold for development. The Trust also solicits money or securities for purchase and maintenance of properties. We own many acres of land, which we maintain for passive recreation (no buildings or lighting, no motor vehicles) and we lead free hikes on the land.
