The Platte Land Trust is an all-volunteer land trust (AVLT) and member of the Land Trust Alliance.

We are dedicated volunteers who care about nature, open spaces, and land  – special places we respect and love. And we enjoy sharing this care for Earth with others. We want current and future generations to reap the benefits of nature and conservation critical to our health and well-being.

Volunteers

The Platte Land Trust knows that volunteers are a most valuable asset and help us accomplish our important mission of conserving natural resources in the region. Volunteers make a huge difference in our community, in numerous ways.   Volunteer contributions include native plant events, tree plantings, invasive plant removal, trail building and nature education.

The best way to get involved as a volunteer is to complete the Volunteer form.

Platte Land Trust partners and collaborates with other organizations to achieve more in our community.
