About Us

The inherent character of the Lakes Region of central New Hampshire has inspired generations of year-round residents and summer visitors alike. Our lakes, forests, and mountains are special places; we value the time we spend here, and we hope that future generations will be able to enjoy the same qualities of the landscape that bring inspiration and comfort to us. The Lakes Region Conservation Trust (LRCT) was founded in 1979 to conserve these special places.

Through our conservation and stewardship work, LRCT is able to:
Preserve community character
Conserve critical wildlife habitat and diverse ecosystems
Provide water quality protection
Preserve natural landmarks and scenic landscapes
Provide outdoor recreation opportunities for people of all ages
Conserve diverse ecosystems

Our vision is a future where conserved lands support thriving biodiversity, healthy watersheds, and vibrant human communities.

The Lakes Region Conservation Trust (LRCT) is dedicated to the permanent conservation, stewardship, and respectful use of lands that define the character of the Lakes Region and its quality of life.

These actions will leave a legacy of conservation benefiting the entire region and its human and non-human inhabitants.
