GIVE NOW

Help shape our county’s future.

Iconic views, locally grown food, fresh water, clean air, recreation access, thriving wildlife habitat—it’s all here in Santa Barbara County and when you give to the Land Trust, you invest in the protection of the places you love.

The Land Trust for Santa Barbara County has protected beloved open spaces, vital farmland, and habitats that make our community thrive. But the future of conservation is uncertain. With national funding at risk, individual donor support has never been more important. EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS. When you give, you help ensure that our trails, wildlife, and working lands endure — not just for today, but for generations to come.
