Preserving Open Space and Protecting Land From Development

To date, we have protected nearly 100 properties from development, and we have preserved over 4000 acres by:

• Facilitating and accepting easement donations 
• Assisting and advising landowners as they sell development rights using government programs and funding 
• Locating buyers to purchase lands threatened by development 
• Protecting areas vulnerable to sprawl development 
• Organizing groups to purchase land threatened by development & reselling with conservation restriction
• Providing information and support to landowners seeking preservation options

We have served as a Manor Area preservation ambassador by:

• Amassing contiguous properties in perpetual easements to strengthen conservation and retain rural character
• Recognizing individuals for exceptional efforts toward preservation of land in the Manor Area
• Providing leadership in local & wider community to foster partnerships, coordinate efforts and increase awareness of conservation opportunities and  practices.

We underscore and celebrate the important connection between history and land preservation. 

Conservation and community connect at the intersection of cultural resources and landscape. My Lady's Manor is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and is recognized as a rural, agricultural, and historical treasure.
