Resource Centre

This is a hub for learning, connecting and growing for land trust volunteers, staff, and board

members, as well as others working to preserve the lands and waters we love. The Centre

contains documents, events, trainings, and other materials related to the topics most important

to land trusts, as well as additional resources needed to support commitment and excellence in

the land trust community.

Sharing & Collaboration

The resources presented on these pages contains information to help land trusts find, use and share information, case studies and examples, to support their organization’s compliance with the Canadian Land Trust Standards & Practices.

This tool is a sharing platform where land trusts can review and contribute additional materials, as well as share and use the documents and templates provided. We aim to maintain and grow this collection of resources through continued review and contribution from our land trust members and affiliated organizations, ensuring up-to-date referencing material & representation across our wonderfully diverse land trust community.
