Managing Our Preserves

Love to work outdoors? You can make a huge difference in our community by helping York Land Trust steward our lands.

Once a property is conserved, YLT has the responsibility of caring for the land in perpetuity. With assistance from our volunteer land stewards, YLT’s Stewardship Director monitors uses, restores and maintains water quality and wildlife habitat, and builds nature trails and other public amenities. Volunteer work days occur throughout the year, and we are happy to work with your group to organize school or corporate work days. To learn more, visit our Volunteer Your Talent page.

Have you seen a tree down, broken bridges, damaged signs or other issues to our trail system? Please let us know by filling out a Trail Issue Report.  Your report helps us fix issues as quickly as possible to keep our trails open, safe, and accessible. Thank you!
