At Western Reserve Land Conservancy, we create, restore, and maintain public parks and nature preserves across dozens of counties in northern Ohio. Our goal is to provide public spaces for education, recreation, and appreciation of nature.

How we help create public parks

We work with landowners and many partners to help create public parks and preserves.


Often, the Land Conservancy will act as a pre-acquisition agent to support our public partners. That means that we provide a full range of services, including conservation planning, purchase of real property interests, short-term financing, long-term funding, and ongoing stewardship.


It takes true partnership to create and protect these public spaces, and we celebrate everyone who helps create the parks that families throughout our region enjoy every day.
