Conservation Forever
Our projects
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 regular monitoring of conserved areas – forever.
