Below is a list of land conservation organizations that either have ‘garden’ in their title or have indicated on the Land Trust Alliance 2010 census that ‘urban parks, gardens or open spaces’ were ‘very’ or ‘extremely important priorities.
The Land Trust Alliance has offered to help Community Gardening groups connect with these organizations by making introductions, helping to gauge organizational interest, facilitating land acquisition, and partnering in other ways.
