The Land Conservancy of West Michigan, formerly the Natural Areas Conservancy of West Michigan, was founded in 1976 by a dedicated group of volunteers who sought to protect West Michigan's natural landscape. Today, with a professional staff and office in Grand Rapids, the Land Conservancy is an independent, non-profit land trust and the only land trust solely dedicated to the permanent protection of important natural lands and open space in West Michigan. A broad coalition of local foundations, friends, neighbors and business people invest their time, talents and money to support our efforts to keep nature nearby. Volunteers continue to be a critical part of our organization. Please visit the Support Us page to learn how you can help by becoming a volunteer or a member.
