Easement Stewardship

Supporting landowners and protecting the lands and waters you love. 
Easement stewardship is our long-term commitment to land and landowners. Through regular communication, annual monitoring visits, and ongoing support, we partner with landowners to ensure the conservation values of their property are protected for generations to come. These duties include: 


  • Visiting conserved lands annually to ensure the easement restrictions are being upheld and conservation values protected; 
  • Answering landowner questions regarding stewardship or management of their land (wildlife management, forested lands, agricultural lands, riparian buffers, etc.); 
  • Providing review and approval services for activities on the property (construction, timber harvesting, subdivisions, conveyance, ecosystem services, etc.) when required by the easement; 
  • Interpreting easement terms and restrictions in easement deeds for the landowner; 
  • Maintaining updated stewardship records and inspection reports  
  • Resolving easement violations. 

Stewardship is not about enforcement; it’s about collaboration, trust, and shared goals. 
Landowner Questionnaire

Each year, landowners are asked to complete a brief stewardship questionnaire. This helps us stay informed and better support you and your property. Landowners can access the questionnaire here.

"We abuse land because we see it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”
