About Us

We conserve land in the beautiful Southern Piedmont of North Carolina. By conserving land, we are improving water and air quality, and protecting wildlife habitats, farmland and open natural spaces.

Open meadows, hardwood forests, working farms, bogs and marshes, streams, ponds, historical landmarks and breathtaking views — these features define the unique and amazingly beautiful character of our region.

As our landscape continues to change in the rapidly urbanizing Greater Charlotte Metro Region, the natural places we value as a community and define this regions character are steadily diminishing.

CLC is dedicated to helping balance the inevitable growth of our communities with the protection of those places that improve our quality of life, sustain our way of life and provide our communities with many ecological and environmental benefits.
