On April 20th, the Thursday before Earth Day, we invite you to Give Back to the Land with a gift to support local conservation!
Together, let’s continue to conserve the land that we depend on.
When we protect our farms, forests, and waterways we are ensuring that our friends, neighbors, and family members will enjoy clean air, clean water, and healthy food - forever. For 36 years the Franklin Land Trust (FLT) has worked with landowners and communities to conserve over 35,000 acres of farmland, woodlands, vistas, historic landscapes, and natural areas that make western Massachusetts such a wonderful place.
Conserved land plays an important role in the fight against climate change.
Trees, forests, fields, and wetlands offer nature-based solutions to our climate crisis by storing and sequestering carbon, filtering air and water, and providing critical habitat for wildlife.

We can’t do it without you!
We need your help to protect the important lands that combat the effects of climate change and make our region special. With your help, we will make sure that western Massachusetts communities can enjoy our region’s wild rivers, scenic views, fresh local food, and recreational opportunities for generations to come.
Take action in honor of Earth Day!
Please consider donating to Franklin Land Trust in support of this important work!
Your gift ensures that we can continue to conserve the places that make western Massachusetts so special, for today and for tomorrow. Thank you for joining with us by giving back to the land!
