Help protect special places.
Less than 1% of land in Kansas is permanently protected. Now, more than ever, we need your support to increase our conservation impact. Kansas does not have dedicated conservation funding. The Kansas Land Trust relies on individual donors to leverage external dollars to protect Kansas for future generations.
The Kansas Land Trust protects lands of ecological, agricultural, cultural, or recreational significance in Kansas. We work with landowners, communities, and other conservation organizations to protect our natural heritage through voluntary conservation agreements.

As the Kansas Land Trust approaches 35 years and enters a new chapter, we are ready to take on new challenges.
Land Protection Pilot Program
The Kansas Land Trust is partnering with Douglas County to increase opportunities for voluntary conservation support to protect lands with public benefit.
“Douglas County views its partnership with the Kansas Land Trust as a chance to ensure that future generations remain connected to conserved areas and benefit from the mutually rewarding relationship with the land,” says Kaitlyn Ammerlaan, Heritage Conservation Coordinator for Douglas County, Kansas.
Kaitlin Stanley, Executive Director of KLT told the Lawrence Journal World, “ I am delighted to enter this partnership because community-centered conservation is at the core of the Kansas Land Trust’s recently completed strategic conservation plan, which will guide KLT’s future work.”
