Welcome
Legacy Land Trust is a community-sponsored land preservation organization working with willing landowners to permanently protect land in the greater Houston region. We preserve river and bayou corridors, other properties with significant wildlife habitat value and places where family recreation can occur in harmony with nature. Our "No Child Left Inside" education program connects tomorrow's conservation leaders with nature today.
Legacy is proud to have conserved over 8,000 acres in the greater Houston region.
Interested in hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, or birding? Are you looking for a place to get out and see nature? Do you need a place to ride your horse? LLT encourages our community to visit our free public preserves to responsibly enjoy the outdoors.
