California

The Trust for Public Land conserves the places people in California care about, from our beautiful coasts, deserts, and ranchlands to snowcapped Sierra summits. We also create innovative parks and trails—especially in and around cities, where 80 percent of Americans live, work, and play.
We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to connect with nature. Research clearly shows that access to nature is an essential prescription for the physical, environmental, social, and economic health of our communities. That’s why we’re working to protect the green places that make California neighborhoods more livable—and more lovable, too.
