Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy
Receives National Land Trust Excellence Award

 

WASHINGTON, DC – Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy (SWMLC) has been presented with a national conservation award for its pioneering work in the land trust field in developing and implementing conservation management plans for important natural areas and setting the example for effective collaboration in conservation.

The SWMLC was selected by The Land Trust Alliance of Washington, DC, from more than 1,700 land trusts across the country, to receive its National Land Trust Excellence Award, which was presented at Rally: The National Land Conservation Conference in Hartford, Connecticut, on October 3, 2010.

SWMLC’s Stewardship staff members are recognized as both regional and national leaders in conservation management. They have developed partnerships with organizations such as the Stewardship Network, Natural Areas Association (NAA), and Defenders of Wildlife to provide workshops and seminars across the country. They have been sought after to share their expertise at numerous conferences and training events for the Land Trust Alliance, Center for Collaborative Conservation, Stewardship Network, NAA, Heart of the Lakes Center for Land Conservation Policy, and several other conservation organizations.

“Our long-term viability, and our ability to create meaningful work in perpetuity, whether it’s scenic or cultural or protecting natural landscapes, is only going to be effective if we become part of this broader community’s fabric,” said SWMLC Executive Director Pete Ter Louw, who accepted the award for the Conservancy.

SWMLC created an innovative model for prioritization that incorporates broad stakeholder involvement and geographic information systems analysis to identify areas with critical conservation values for protection and management. The long list of stakeholders involved in these projects include federal agencies, state agencies, county officials, conservation districts, township and city officials, community foundations, private conservation organizations, universities, nature centers, community leaders, and private landowners.

The Land Trust Alliance recognized the success of this model and provided SWMLC a Strategic Conservation Planning grant to use to prioritize conservation actions in and around the 25,000-acre Barry State Game Area. Implementation of the resulting plan began immediately as a private family foundation, engaged in the planning process, stepped forward to make its core mission be the protection and restoration of priority lands. The same family foundation, the USFWS, MDNRE, Ducks Unlimited, and SWMLC have begun a long-term relationship coordinating restoration management between adjacent but separately held parcels in the same region. These partners also brought together several additional conservation organizations to receive a $1 million North American Wetland Conservation Act grant.

Rand Wentworth, President of the Land Trust Alliance, said in bestowing the award that “As a direct result of their willingness to seek out regional expertise, intergovernmental cooperation, and coordination with all of the regional members and the neighbors, the SWMLC has been able to make incredible conservation happen.”  He added, “Together with fellow consevationists, the members of the SWMLC have found an effective way to preserve the quality of life and unique character of their community — now and forever."

Excellence in Collaboration
For Impacting Whole Landscapes

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Scenic Hudson has been presented with a national conservation award for its pioneering work in the land trust field in developing and implementing collaborative conservation management plans for important natural landscapes.

Scenic Hudson was selected by the Land Trust Alliance of Washington, D.C., from more than 1,700 land trusts across the country, to receive its National Land Trust Excellence Award, which was presented at Rally: The National Land Conservation Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on October 14, 2011.

Scenic Hudson is an impactful environmental organization and land trust working in New York’s Hudson River Valley to protect and restore the Hudson River and its majestic landscape.  A crusader for the valley since 1963, Scenic Hudson is credited with saving the beautiful Storm King Mountain from a destructive industrial project and helping to launch the modern environmental movement.

“Scenic Hudson was born of the passion of people who loved the place and said ‘no’ to destruction of an icon and of a sacred mountain,” said Rand Wentworth, president of the Land Trust Alliance. “We presented this award because of Scenic Hudson’s breadth of vision and their accomplishment. They have embraced the concept of large landscapes, have been a model partner in engaging with diverse communities, people of color and other nonprofits. They have put their money and efforts in doing their work where people live for healthy communities.”

Having conserved almost 28,000 acres of lands that contribute to the scenic fabric, ecological integrity and agricultural viability of the Hudson River Valley, Scenic Hudson has a long and distinguished track record of collaborative conservation -- designing a model for conservation easements and establishing a collaborative process.  The tangible outcomes resulting from this process helped spur several municipalities to create their own farmland protection programs and funding streams.  Scenic Hudson has collaborated with several of these communities to conserve farms that are shared priorities.    

Scenic Hudson has contributed to a spirit of collaboration and information-sharing between the land trusts of the Hudson Valley.  This has occurred at an especially critical time because of the economic downturn and the stress that many nonprofit land trusts are feeling. In 2007, Scenic Hudson carried out a strategic land conservation plan, using geographic information systems technology, to identify the most critical scenic, ecological and agricultural resources in the Hudson River corridor.  The result of this analysis was the identification of 65,000 acres of land of the utmost conservation priority.  Scenic Hudson then launched a collaborative land conservation campaign, which it calls Saving the Land That Matters Most, to increase the pace and impact of their work.

It engaged in this campaign with 15 partner land trusts and conservation organizations, including county and local land trusts, regional and national conservation organizations.  The groups meet several times a year to update each other on progress in meeting shared goals, and to identify ways to collaborate further.  Today, Scenic Hudson is further partnering with state conservation agencies on the pursuit of shared conservation goals for the region.  

“I look at Scenic Hudson and I think: What would I aspire for any of us in land conservation to do? Working in cities, working with diverse populations, working with great partners, bringing farm-to-table, connecting the agriculture communities with the urban communities; Scenic Hudson is doing all of that,” said Wentworth.

When presented with the award, Steve Rosenberg, senior vice president; executive director of the Scenic Hudson Land Trust, Inc. said: Our mission will always outstrip our means …so to be mission driven and outcome oriented, there’s no room for thinking we can do this without a strategic framework and without the support of others.” Rosenberg added, “We are fortunate to have so many committed partners working with us. As we continue our work, we are beginning to see the puzzle pieces come together to reveal a picture of regional, landscape-scale conservation, and the public increasingly understands and supports our work.”

Forest and Rural Lands Conservationist Peter Stein Receives Kingsbury Browne Conservation Leadership Award

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Peter Stein of Norwich, VT, was announced as the winner of the Land Trust Alliance’s prestigious Kingsbury Browne Conservation Leadership Award. Stein was selected for the award for his vision and dedication to land conservation, which have resulted in extraordinary gains for the land trust movement. Stein’s commitment to working closely with individual communities developing strategic and viable conservation plans has produced remarkable benefits for both people and conservation.

Stein is the seventh recipient of this honor awarded by the Land Trust Alliance to recognize outstanding leadership, innovation and creativity in land conservation.

Stein was also named to serve in the Kingsbury Browne Fellowship at the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy for 2012-2013. In his role in this fellowship, named after Boston attorney Kingsbury Browne (1922-2005), Stein will engage in research, writing and mentoring with the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, a Cambridge-based think-tank with a focus on land policy. He will serve in their Department of Planning and Urban Form.

Both awards were presented in Salt Lake City, Utah, at the Land Trust Alliance’s Rally 2012: The National Land Conservation Conference, the largest annual gathering of professional and volunteer conservation leaders in the U.S.

In his acceptance remarks, Stein said, “I’ve been inspired by Kingsbury over the years and I’m very pleased to join the company of past award recipients, all of whom I know quite well as personal friends and professional colleagues.”

He added, “The most durable and major accomplishment in the environmental movement in this country over the last 20 years has been the land trust movement. We have engaged communities who care about places, and it is land trusts that translate those engaged communities into both land conservation action and political action.”

When presenting the award, Michael Dowling, Land Trust Alliance chairman of the board, said, “Peter has dedicated his professional career and a great deal of his personal time to thoughtful, intelligent land stewardship. His leadership has contributed to both the nonprofit and the corporate worlds and, through honorable work on both sides of the fence, Peter has helped demonstrate that development can be both profitable and sustainable.”

Mr. Wade Martin Honored with National Conservation Service AwardCommunity Engagement Advances Conservation

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Every year, one land conservation leader is selected to receive the Land Trust Alliance’s prestigious National Conservation Service Award for making a significant contribution to the advancement of land conservation.  Mr. Wade Martin, a tireless volunteer who has provided land trusts and landwoners across New Jersey with countless professional hours providing financial advice, estate planning and building collaborative relationships for the benefit of land conservation, was presented with the award this year at Rally: The National Land Conservation Conference in Salt Lake City Utah, on September 30, 2012.  

When Mr. Martin accepted the award, he said, “Growing up in a small town in New Jersey and watching the farmland disappear motivated me to find out how this development could be slowed. I grew up with farms, horses and cows around me; now there are cars, houses and bigger schools. I graduated from high school with 111 kids in my class and now my three children attend the same school with 500 kids per class.”

Mr. Martin’s first introduction to land preservation was in 1994, when he met Linda Mead from the D&R Greenway Land Trust in Princeton, NJ., at an educational seminar that D&R hosted for local financial advisors and which featured attorney Steve Small as the speaker. That meeting opened Mr. Martin’s eyes to how beneficial land preservation can be for everyone involved. As part of the Martin-Rizzo Group at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (MSWM), Mr. Martin has worked to make their clients aware of the benefits of land preservation. Mr. Martin, along with MSWM, has now taken the land preservation model nationwide to help other financial advisors and their land-owning clients explore various options in preserving their land and their families’ legacies.

Ms. Mead and Mr. Martin had a vision to train and educate land trusts and financial advisors across the country about working together to increase the pace of land conservation.  This vision came to fruition in June 2012 at the Johnson Education Center, which is D&R Greenway’s base inNJ. In partnership with the Land Trust Alliance and D&R Greenway, MSWM hosted the National Pilot Training Program for land trust executives, attorneys and financial advisors. Eight land trusts, coupled with eight MSWM financial advisors and eight attorneys from each of the land trusts’ regions, were brought into Princeton for a two-day seminar. The participants left the training with a collective exclamation: “This is groundbreaking stuff.” The states represented were Colorado, Michigan, Connecticut, Alabama, New York, Virginia, Massachusetts and Florida.

Mr. Martin has assisted in preserving land ranging from 1 acre to 2,000 acres. One of his most memorable land preservation projects was bridging the gap between an offer of $23m from a developer to build 143 houses on a large parcel of farmland and a land preservation offer of $14m to preserve the property. After working with the town, the landowner and their advisors, Mr. Martin was able to help the township bridge the financial gap and preserve the property in such a way that everyone came out a winner.  

Mr. Martin has most recently been working with the Land Trust Alliance and its Corporate Council, of which MSWM is a founding member, on helping corporations be great partners in preserving land. Additionally, Mr. Martin is also involved in the Montgomery Township Education Foundation (MTEF), which supports expenses for children in town that the school budget does not cover. And he also works extensively with the disabled community, helping people with conditions such as cerebral palsy, autism and other physical handicaps to live their lives to the fullest.

Still residing in the town he grew up in with his wife and three children, Mr. Martin’s current home is just around the corner from the house he grew up in, where his parents still live. The most rewarding experiences for Mr. Martin in working on behalf of land preservation are when his children see a sign that says preserved land and, when they ask, he can tell them that he had a part in preserving that land.

About the D&R Greenway Land Trust

D&R Greenway Land Trust is central New Jersey's nonprofit land preservation organization, founded in 1989 through the collaboration and vision of four organizations: the Stony Brook - Millstone Watershed Association, Friends of Princeton Open Space, Regional Planning Partnership, and the Delaware & Raritan Canal Commission. Founders, including Jim Amon, Rosemary Blair, Dennis Davidson, Sam Hamill, and Bob Johnston, realized that our region's open space was threatened with extinction. Their vision of an organization dedicated to the preservation of our remaining natural areas led to the creation of this small grassroots organization that completed the first nonprofit acquisition using Green Acres funds in 1992.

D&R Greenway Land Trust permanently preserves watershed lands and large-scale landscapes, thereby preventing the loss of open space to development. Our operating region consists of over 1,500 square miles, encompassing portions of the Delaware, Raritan and Millstone River watersheds and the Delaware & Raritan Canal. This includes Mercer, Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Burlington and Monmouth counties. We have broadened our work to include preservation of farmland in Salem County in the area of Mannington Meadows. Visit http://drgreenway.org.

Leaders Gather to Plan the Future of Private Land Conservation

 

Washington, D.C. – The Land Trust Alliance today announced that the nation’s largest annual gathering of land conservation leaders will meet this fall in Milwaukee, WI, October 13-16, to celebrate land conservation in America.  Rally 2011: The National Land Conservation Conference is expected to draw more than 1,500 conservation leaders, government officials and academics.

“People in the Midwest have a great appreciation for the land and the gifts it offers.  From the bluffs of the mighty Mississippi to the tall grass prairies, and from the forested lands and farms to Lake Michigan’s scenic landscapes, communities are uniting to save the places that give meaning to our lives,” said Land Trust Alliance President Rand Wentworth.  “This commitment prioritizes the protection of clean air, clean water, wildlife, and places to explore close to home.”

Land trusts are local, state or nationwide nonprofits whose mission is to conserve land in its natural or traditional state, including farming and ranching, through voluntary agreements with landowners.  According to the latest numbers collected by the Alliance, more than 50 land trusts in Wisconsin have protected a total of 52,696 acres.

“We selected Milwaukee this year to honor the strong urban conservation ethic in this region, and also to give our supporters a chance to enjoy the state’s diverse beauty,” said Wentworth. Milwaukee features Frederick Law Olmsted's extraordinary urban parks system, and the city has made additional investments in creating green, livable and eco-friendly communities. With the Olmsted parks and an incredible network of Milwaukee County parks – as well as the celebrated urban gardens and their advancement of the local foods movement – it is on the forefront of conservation success.

The first of this year’s keynote speakers, Will Allen, has been named to Time magazine’s 2010 100 World’s Most Influential People list. He is the founder and CEO of Growing Power Inc., and is a preeminent thinker on urban agriculture and food policy. He has been invited to the White House to join First Lady Michelle Obama in her “Let’s Move” signature program, and he works tirelessly to train and support community farmers to ensure a local source of healthy food regardless of political or economic status.

Rally will also feature a keynote address from Will Rogers, CEO of the Trust for Public Land (TPL).  An innovator in urban redevelopment projects as well as the conservation of remote and inspirational wildlands, Will leads TPL in its mission to conserve land for people to enjoy as parks, gardens and other natural places, ensuring livable communities for generations to come.

Rally seminars, workshops and speakers will address national conservation trends, cutting-edge practices of land conservation and best professional standards for land trusts.  More than 110 workshops and 26 seminars are scheduled. 

MEDIA INVITED: Keynote speeches are open to representatives of the media.  To attend other workshops, trainings, field trips or seminars, registration is required.  Inquire at the registration desk at the Frontier Airlines Center, or contact Peshie Chaifetz, Communications Manager, at pchaifetz@lta.org | 301-502-9245.
