Community land trusts are set up as non-profit organizations for the purpose of owning and preserving land through stewardship. Each organization decides on its mission and then begins to acquire title to any land that it can afford to purchase, mostly undeveloped land such as farms, wetlands, wildlife habitats, Coastlines, land along waterways, etc. The land can then be used for passive public recreation. Land trusts benefit the community by conserving and protecting large green areas from development and provide the public with access to nature.
