We All Want Clean Air, Clean Water & Pristine Natural Lands

The mission of North Branch Land Trust is to conserve the natural, working, and scenic landscapes in Northeastern Pennsylvania that enrich our lives.

We are a private not for profit land conservation organization focused on identifying and conserving important watershed lands, agricultural lands, woodlands, scenic lands, and critical habitat for plants and animals in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The Land Trust currently operates in eight Northeastern Pennsylvania counties and focuses on the watersheds of the North Branch of the Susquehanna River.

Our conservation efforts are for charitable and educational intentions exclusively. We believe it is vital to be professional, fair, and accountable in all our activities as a non-profit community organization. We are committed to build and sustain an organization that can provide conservation opportunities and stewardship in perpetuity.

We are a regional organization with a regional perspective. We believe that pristine natural assets provide important ecological, economic, educational, recreational, and spiritual benefits to the citizens of our region. We work pro-actively and collaboratively to conserve these resources throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania.

POSITION FILLED

This week, North Branch Land Trust assembled a team of judges from local conservation organizations to select the winners of the Susquehanna North Branch Nature Photography contest hosted by NBLT. Winning Photographers, Kevin Jones, Cheryl Miller, and Gail Stasko received conservation swag bags to honor their great work in capturing important moments around the Susquehanna Watershed in Wildlife, Plant Life, Recreation and Landscape categories.

The Susquehanna watershed is more than just the river. It is all of the lands that surround it, all of the creeks that lead into it, and all of the lands that drain into those creeks that drain into the Susquehanna that eventually reaches the Chesapeake Bay! From Tunkhannock’s Riverside Park to the tippy top of Mountain Top, it is all connected.
