Free access to 22 miles of trails across a 3,400 acre preserve, guided canoe trips on the beautiful Parkers Creek, regenerative farming that benefits a local food pantry. ACLT is dedicated to land conservation and to the community.

Since 1986, the people of the American Chestnut Land Trust have been dedicated to protecting, caring for and sharing land within the Parkers Creek and Governor’s Run watersheds. We know that if we don’t preserve our special natural and cultural places for the benefit of this and future generations, they will be lost forever.

Together, the board, staff, members and volunteers of ACLT strive to support balanced growth by promoting land conservation for the aesthetic, environmental and economic benefit of Calvert County. ACLT – a devoted team - works with communities and landowners to create spaces for wildlife to live in, researchers to learn from, adults to find peace on and children to be amazed by… forever.
