The Land Trust relies on donations from individual members to fund its core expenses. Without membership support we would not have the staff necessary to meet with landowners, care for protected lands, or seek foundation and public agency funds.  In 2006 individual donations will matched $21 to $1 through public agency and private foundation grants.

Our ambitious plans to protect Santa Cruz County include steady increases in community support over the next few years.  We call this the Steep Slope and we hope you’ll join us in climbing it – and some other steep and not so steep slopes on our Member Walks.

Members of the Land Trust receive the following benefits:

• Invitations to four Member Walks a year.
  See Land Trust events for this year’s schedule of walks.
• Half price tickets for themselves and their guests to the Annual Celebration at the Swanton Pacific Ranch.
• Free subscription to our full color quarter newsletter, Landmarks.

Conservation Circle Members make annual contributions of $1,000 or more.  They receive the above membership benefits, plus special updates on Land Trust activities throughout the year and invitations to  exclusive Conservation Circle events, including the Annual Conservation Circle Garden Party. 

Conservation Circle Friends contribute $250 annually and receive membership benefits, plus an invitation to one Conservation Circle event a year.
