A Story of Stewardship
The Farmington Land Trust has a single mission: to protect open space in perpetuity. We do this through acquisition, stewardship, education and advocacy. As one of Connecticut's oldest land trusts, The Farmington Land Trust has pursued this goal since its founding in 1971.
Thanks to the generosity of its donors, the Land Trust now protects 276 acres of fields, forests, wetlands, scenic vistas, historic sites and wildlife habitat from development. All of the Land Trust's 64 parcels will remain as open space forever, enriching the quality of life for Farmington residents for generations to come. We appreciate the commitment of our donors to the future of Farmington. A Board of Directors elected by its membership at the Annual Meeting each April governs the Land Trust. Current Land Trust members offer invaluable financial and volunteer support for maintaining and preserving the property under the Land Trust’s protection and for acquiring additional open space. The Farmington Land Trust is a private, non-profit, tax-exempt organization supported by town residents dedicated to the preservation of open space.
