What is a “Land Conservancy”
A land conservancy (also called a “land trust”) is a nonprofit land conservation organization dedicated to preserving land for the benefit of people and nature. The land conservancy does this by working with landowners to preserve land by assisting with direct land transactions such as acceptance of land donations, acceptance of conservation easements, and occasionally purchase of land or conservation easements.
Seno K/RLT Conservancy is a non-profit land trust serving both Kenosha and Racine counties. We hold easements as well as own and manage properties in order to protect natural spaces from development in perpetuity. We also provide environmental and natural resources education for our communities, with a focus on sustainable forestry.
You can learn more about the Seno K/RLT Conservancy’s origins though our website. Be sure to visit to our Woodland Management Center and Jean McGraw Nature Preserve to experience our sustainable forestry operation and public nature preserves in person!
