Celebrating Conservation Excellence

May 1, 2026-

The Wilderness Land Trust has been awarded accreditation by the Land Trust Accreditation Commission through a comprehensive third-party evaluation.

The accreditation process verifies that we have demonstrated fiscal accountability, strong organizational leadership, sound transactions, and lasting stewardship.

The Trust first received accreditation in 2008, joining the more than 470 accredited land trusts across the country that are committed to meeting the highest standards in conservation. We have since gone through reaccreditation three times.

Our commitment to conservation excellence, reflected in this accreditation, is not just in service of our mission to protect wild places, it ensures our values are implemented in how we work every day: that our supporters know their generosity is having a direct impact, that our partnerships are built on respect, and that every landowner we work with is treated with professionalism and fairness.
