Since 1953, we have worked to protect landscapes in eastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey by preserving and caring for natural lands, healthy habitats, and clean watersheds for the benefit of native plants, wildlife, and current and future generations.

Today, with the help of our dedicated members and partners, we own and manage 41 nature preserves, totaling over 21,000 acres, and hold conservation easements and other restrictions exceeding 18,000 acres.

Our comprehensive and practical approach to conservation includes:

Saving Land:
Permanently protecting natural areas using acquisition and conservation easements and by helping growing communities preserve more of their land.

Stewardship:
Providing leadership in managing natural resources on our own preserves and sharing what we've learned with other landowners.

Connecting People to Nature:
Creating opportunities for people to connect with and learn from nature on our preserves.
