Eastern Shore Land Conservancy
Founded in 1990, Eastern Shore Land Conservancy is a private,
nonprofit organization working to protect land and promote sound
land use planning on Maryland's Eastern Shore. They have
protected more than 38,000 acres by working closely with
hundreds of landowners, and helped towns and counties make plans
for the Shore's future that truly reflect the values and needs
of its residents. Their vision in 2050 is an Eastern Shore where
towns are vibrant and well defined; farms, forests, and
fisheries are thriving and scenic; historic, natural, and
riverine landscapes are maintained.
Saving Land on the Eastern Shore
Healthy farms and rural landscapes, an active fisheries industry
and historic small towns and villages largely characterize the
six Mid-Upper Shore counties on Maryland's Eastern Shore. A
sense of pride and feelings of respect for the region are held
by Eastern Shore residents. But to maintain the Eastern Shore we
all love, as residents the ESLC must address the problem of land
loss and become active in protecting our land.
