About us

Westchester Land Trust works together with public and private partners to preserve land in perpetuity, and to protect and enhance the natural resources in our communities.

Westchester Land Trust emphasizes the following values as core to our efforts:
Generational Responsibility. We are committed to the permanent protection of the natural resources and history of Westchester County and nearby communities.
Integrity. We are dedicated to fulfilling our mission with integrity and honesty, working in a spirit of cooperation and collaboration.
Inclusiveness. We endeavor to be accountable to as many constituents as possible, respect the input of all our constituents, and value the diverse perspectives they bring to our land protection strategies. We acknowledge that our region is within the traditional territories of the Lenape people and that their culture and traditions live on today. We strive to incorporate the priorities from Indigenous Peoples and underserved community members into our land conservation practices.
Organizational Excellence. We are a professional, effective, and efficient organization committed to excellence and accountability.
