This Land is Your Land

Protecting Our Natural and National Heritage

Explore the public lands the Conservancy has helped protect. After all, this land is your land.

How will you spend your summer vacation? Chances are, you'll visit at least one state or national park.

“From California to the New York island” — as Woody Guthrie's famous folk song goes — The Nature Conservancy has worked for decades with local, state and federal agencies to preserve many of America’s national treasures.

The Conservancy also supports U.S. policy initiatives such as America’s Great Outdoors, which aims to reconnect our people with their natural heritage, and urges a permanent commitment to the Land and Water Conservation Fund. And working with our international partners, the Conservancy helps create, expand and improve parks around the world.
