Founded in 1980, Land's Sake is a private, nonprofit corporation
dedicated to responsible stewardship of suburban farmland and
forests. By combining ecologically sound land management with
hands-on environmental education, we provide a powerful model of how
public open space can be effectively used and enjoyed by the
community. Our efforts are centered on three themes:
-
Sustainable Land Management and Open
Space Preservation
-
Environmental Education
-
Community Building and Care
Within this framework, we focus on farming,
forestry and educational activities.
