This record-breaking conservation victory was achieved exclusively through the generous partnership of businesses and individuals. 

 

When you partner with Three Rivers Land Trust, you know that what goes here, stays here. Every cent we receive from our 15 county region region goes right back into conserving its scenic lands, family farms, local waters, and wildlife habitat.

 

Multiply your impact! For every $1 we receive, we leverage an additional $16 from other sources for North Carolina conservation projects. Donate now to help permanently conserve the next 50,000 acres of North Carolina land.

“This land will always be a farm with trees growing and creeks running through it. You can’t ask for more than that.”

Make every year a record-breaking year for local conservation.

As North Carolina’s population grows, its scenic lands, family farms, local waters, and native wildlife habitat are under increasing threat of development. When these precious resources are lost to development, they’re gone forever. When they’re conserved, they’re conserved forever. 

 

The only difference between permanent land loss and permanent conservation is your financial support.

 

This year, make a stand for North Carolina land and give the gift of conservation.
