Alabama Land Trust, Inc., Georgia Land Trust, Inc., and The Chattowah Open Land Trust, Inc. are nonprofit 501(c)(3) conservation organizations dedicated to protecting land for present and future generations by helping private landowners protect land, primarily through conservation easements. Conservation easements are voluntary agreements between the land trusts and landowners whereby the landowner permanently protects the conservation values of the land, potentially resulting in significant income and other tax savings for the landowner.
