Conserve Your Land

Jack Burbage
Conservation Land Fund
Join our campaign to conserve vulnerable conservation lands!
Lower Shore Land Trust has established the Jack Burbage Conservation Land Fund in honor of his substantial gift to the organization. The Fund will be managed by the Board of Directors for the purpose of protecting and restoring vulnerable conservation lands across the Lower Shore.
Your support will enable the Lower Shore Land Trust to protect and restore land crucial to conservation when it is most vulnerable. The Jack Burbage Conservation Land Fund bridges the gap between the property sale and the timeline necessary to gather the needed resources required to permanently protect the conservation asset.
