Conserve Your Land

Deciding to protect your land in perpetuity is a personal decision, and we at Bear-Paw understand that. We speak almost daily with property owners who have just started to consider conserving their land and are looking for information about their options. Conserving your land starts with your vision for its future. It also involves your financial and tax circumstances, the value of the land itself, and the conservation goals of Bear-Paw Regional Greenways.

Landowner contributions can be an important part of the land protection projects that Bear-Paw works on; however, not all landowners are in a position to make a donation. Those landowners who are able to donate the value of a conservation easement on their property or sell it below the appraised market value (a "bargain sale") can often deduct the donated portion on their federal tax return. Conservation easements or gifts of land can offer donors substantial federal income tax and estate tax advantages. In all cases, Bear-Paw works with landowners to meet their goals.

If you would like to discuss your specific situation in more detail, please contact the Bear-Paw office or one of our Board Members.
