Douglas Land Conservancy (DLC) is a nonpolitical, nonprofit land trust dedicated to the protection and conservation of the natural character, habitat, ecosystems and open space of Douglas County and other areas within the central Front Range region of Colorado.

Formed by concerned community members in 1987, DLC has primarily served the Douglas County region. However, recognizing the importance of a regional approach in land conservation DLC has since broadened its focus to include surrounding counties including Jefferson and Elbert.

Today, we are actively preserving over 28,000 acres in Douglas, Jefferson and Elbert Counties through conservation easements. Our work is made possible because of generous support from donors, volunteers, partner organizations and landowners.

Approximately half of our conserved lands are owned by government entities, such as Douglas County, Town of Parker, and Town of Castle Rock, that provide a diversity of recreational opportunities sought by folks across the Front Range. 

The rest of our properties under easement are private lands that protect agricultural operations, open space, scenic viewscapes, critical wildlife habitat, and wetlands in perpetuity.
