Organizations Filed Purposes:
OUR MISSION IS TO WORK WITH LANDOWNERS AND COMMUNITIES TO CONSERVE THE LANDS WE LOVE, NOW AND FOREVER, AND TO ENRICH CONNECTIONS TO THE NATURAL WORLD.
LAND STEWARDSHIP THE PALOUSE LAND TRUST HAS A LEGAL AND ETHICAL OBLIGATION TO ENSURE THAT WE UPHOLD THE CONSERVATION VALUES ENTRUSTED TO US ON THE PROPERTIES WE PROTECT. ACCEPTING AND HOLDING CONSERVATION EASEMENTS FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT COMMITS US TO OUR ANNUAL STEWARDSHIP TASKS IN PERPETUITY. THIS REQUIRES CONSISTENT MONITORING, MAINTAINING POSITIVE LANDOWNER RELATIONS, EXCELLENT RECORDKEEPING, PROCESSING REQUESTS FOR APPROVALS AND AMENDMENTS, AND MANAGING STEWARDSHIP FUNDS. BEYOND THE LANDS ENCUMBERED BY CONSERVATION EASEMENTS, WE ALSO OWN AND MANAGE FEE TITLE LANDS AS NATURE PRESERVES. OUR LAND STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM OVERSEES THE CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF THESE LANDS FOR THE CONSERVATION VALUES, ECOSYSTEM SERVICES AND PUBLIC BENEFITS THEY PROVIDE, INCLUDING PUBLIC RECREATION ACCESS, WILDLIFE CORRIDORS, AND PROTECTION OF THREATENED ECOSYSTEMS.
OUTREACH AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT - EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES TO SHOWCASE THE VALUES AND THE SPECIAL QUALITIES OF THE LANDS WE CONSERVE DRAWS MORE PEOPLE TO OUR MISSION. OFFERING EXPERIENTIAL OUTINGS, WELLNESS PROGRAMS, AND ENRICHMENT AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES ON OUR PRESERVES AND OTHER CONSERVEDPROPERTIES CONNECTS MORE PEOPLE OF ALL AGES, BACKGROUNDS, AND ABILITIES WITH OUR WORK AND THE POWER OF THE LAND. PROVIDING LEADERSHIP AND RESOURCES FOR COMMUNITY-ORIENTED CONSERVATION PROJECTS STRENGTHENS AND EXPANDS OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE PUBLIC TO BE INVOLVED AND BECOME CHAMPIONS OF CONSERVATION THEMSELVES. STRENGTHENING EXISTING PARTNERSHIPS AND BUILDING NEW ONES WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, CITY AND COUNTY LEADERSHIP AND AGENCIES OPENS WINDOWS OF OPPORTUNITY. STRONGER TOGETHER, WE CAN PROVIDE MORE STRUCTURED AND UNSTRUCTURED NATURE PLAY, EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES, AND PROGRAMMING TO CONNECT YOUTH WITH THE WONDER OF THE NATURAL WORLD.
LAND ACQUISITION THE PALOUSE LAND TRUST WORKS WITH WILLING LANDOWNERS TO PROTECT OUR MOST TREASURED OPEN SPACES, ICONIC LANDSCAPES, AND CRITICAL HABITATS IN NORTH-CENTRAL IDAHO AND EASTERN WASHINGTON. THE PRIMARY TOOL THE LAND TRUST USES TO ACCOMPLISH THIS IS BY USING VOLUNTARY LEGAL AGREEMENTS CALLED CONSERVATION EASEMENTS. SINCE 1995, THE LAND TRUST HAS USED CONSERVATION EASEMENTS TO PROTECT THREATENED WORKING FARMS AND FORESTS, WILDLIFE HABITAT AND CORRIDORS, RARE AND ENDANGERED PLANTS AND HABITATS, VITAL WATERWAYS, AND AREAS FOR THE PUBLIC TO RECREATE AND ENJOY NATURE. WE PRIORITIZE CONSERVATION PROJECTS THAT PROTECT THE MOST RESILIENT AND IMPORTANT LANDS IN THE FACE OF A CHANGING CLIMATE. A TOP PRIORITY IS ON PROJECTS WHERE THERE IS A STRONG COMMITMENT TO EXPANDING PUBLIC RECREATION ACCESS AND COMMUNITY TRAIL SYSTEMS, PARTICULARLY THOSE THAT CONTRIBUTE TO A MORE DIVERSE, INCLUSIVE CONSERVATION MOVEMENT. THROUGH ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN LOCAL AND REGIONAL PLANNING INITIATIVES, WE AMPLIFY THE IMPACT OF LOCAL LAND CONSERVATION TO CREATE THE FUTURE WE WISH TO SEE.
