The Trustees of Reservations is the nation's first and Massachusetts' largest preservation and conservation nonprofit. Its overarching mission is to preserve Massachusetts' landscapes and keep open space accessible to everyone, permanently. They manage a vast portfolio of over 100 special places across the Commonwealth, spanning nearly 27,000 acres. Their work encompasses protecting natural and historical properties, providing stewardship for their reservations, developing engaging public programs, and sharing their expertise in conservation.
While the Trustees of Reservations holds land permanently in trust as well, this organization has a few significant differences from the Humankind Land Trust.
