About Us
Protecting the Landscapes That Protect America.™
Compatible Lands Foundation (CLF) is a nationally recognized nonprofit land trust dedicated to partnering with landowners and communities to protect the lands that support America’s military, working farms and ranches, wildlife, and water resources.
Founded in 2009, CLF works with willing landowners, military installations, conservation organizations, government agencies, and local communities to protect landscapes that are vital to both national defense and our nation’s natural heritage.
What We Do
As development continues to expand, it can create conflicts with military training, wildlife habitat, agriculture, and water resources.
CLF helps prevent these conflicts by permanently conserving strategically important lands through voluntary conservation easements and collaborative partnerships.
Our work protects:
- Working farms and ranches
- Wildlife habitat and biodiversity
- Water resources and watersheds
- Open space and rural landscapes
- Military training and testing capabilities
