Athens Land Trust

Founded in December 1994, Athens Land Trust believes in a holistic approach to sustainable development which combines environmental, economic, and community needs. Their mission is to improve quality of life for all by preserving, protecting, and strengthening the fabric of the community through education and the stewardship of land for purposes of affordable housing, conservation, agriculture, and economic development. 

They respond to community-identified needs and build individual and collective power among historically marginalized people. More information about Athens Land Trust and its program areas can be found here: http://www.athenslandtrust.org/about/
