Why Trust the NBCLT with Your Land?
For nearly 30 years, we have been a steward for New Brunswick’s rural and forest heritage. We understand that land is more than a commodity; it is a lifetime of work, a family’s history, and a community’s future. When you donate land or a conservation easement to the New Brunswick Community Land Trust, you are ensuring it will never be lost to speculation or neglect.
What We Offer Potential Donors:
- Perpetual Stewardship: We ensure your land remains in “ecologically sustainable production”—whether as a managed forest, a vibrant micro-farm, or a community garden.
- Local Control: We remove land from the speculative market, keeping it in the hands of the community to serve the “lifeblood of rural New Brunswick.”
- Customized Solutions: Whether you wish to donate your title outright, or establish a long-term leasehold model, we work with you to honour your wishes.
Let’s Start a Conversation
We are currently expanding our patchwork of community-held lands. If you are a landowner who wishes to see your soil feed future generations or your woodlot managed with care, we want to hear from you.
Contact us HERE to discuss:
- Donating land title to the Trust.
- The potential tax benefits of donating to a registered Canadian charity.
- How your land can become a cornerstone for a new garden community.
Note: Every piece of land is unique. The NBCLT evaluates all potential land donations based on ecological health, community need, and our current capacity for stewardship. All inquiries are held in strict confidence.
