Conservation Forever

When Mendocino Land Trust takes on a conservation project, it is never “one and done.” Our work focuses on the goal of “Conservation Forever.” We make a commitment to steward the lands we conserve in perpetuity — that means forever! We are a nationally accredited land trust and take the responsibility that comes with that designation very seriously.

All projects go through a rigorous planning process and the Land Trust commits to ongoing monitoring of conserved areas — forever.

Projects are selected based on the following factors:
Degree of public benefit
Important conservation values on the property
Level of potential threat to the conservation values of the property
