New River Land Trust

Public outreach: the new river land trust provides outreach, education, facilitation, and implementation services to landowners with an interest in conserving rural land and its associated natural and/or cultural resources. We have a particular focus on the new river region, although over the years we have worked with people out of state and in many virginia counties.

Youth outreach: new river land trust plays an important role in connecting local youth with the beautiful land around them. Our educational outreach focuses on four important areas: conservation connections in cultural heritage, local food and farm to table initiatives, water quality and habitat diversity, and nature play and environmental appreciation. Our youth education outreach is designed to inspire students to value their natural surroundings and to foster responsibility and stewardship of farmland, forests, and watersheds.
