Our Mission

The Niagara Land Trust Foundation (NLT) is a group of concerned and knowledgeable volunteers. The membership is very diverse with many experts from a variety of professional backgrounds and excellent community representation. Our focus is to acquire and manage land for public interest and benefit, while providing leadership in sustainable land stewardship on the properties we own and manage in the Niagara Peninsula. The NLT is managed by a Board of Directors and 5 working committees. They include: Fundraising & Marketing, Members & Nominations, Project Review, Science & Stewardship and Strategic Planning.

The NLT is a part of the Ontario Land Trust Alliance (OLTA, www.olta.ca). OLTA supports and coordinates 35 other Land Trusts across Ontario. We have adopted the Canadian Land Trust Alliance Standards and Practices.
