Legacy is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works with individuals, landowners, organizations, and local government to protect forests, prairies, farms, wetlands, and waters in Washtenaw, Jackson, and Lenawee counties. Legacy enjoys a nearly 50-year record of protecting the beautiful places and unique character of southern Michigan. Legacy was reaccredited by the Land Trust Accreditation Commission in 2014 and again, in 2020. Legacy Land Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) organization, and a member of the Land Trust Alliance and Heart of the Lakes.
