Who We Are

Mission

The Land Trust of Santa Cruz County, in cooperation with public and private interests, protects and manages lands of significant natural resource, agricultural, cultural and open space value.

Staff with Diane CooleyVision

We see a future where the wild and working forests, the beaches and coastline, the globally unique biotic habitats and the County’s rich farming and ranching heritage—those things that define the extraordinary place we call Santa Cruz County—are preserved forever, are lovingly cared for by supportive communities and are cherished by all as an extraordinary gift that this generation has made to future generations.

Read more about these strategies in our Mission and Vision Statement...

Recent Accomplishments

In 2006 the Land Trust Board of Trustees set out to transform the Land Trust into a dynamic conservation leader capable of protecting the lands that make Santa Cruz County special for future generations. Since that time the Land Trust has protected more than eight times the amount of land it had protected up to 2006 and raised $38 million for land conservation.
