It's a great opportunity to plug all local land trusts. Unlike national conservation organizations (which are great and have their place), local land trusts can really take on the priorities of the local area. For example, the land trust I'm involved with here in the Inland Northwest does a lot of work to make sure that land used for agriculture and forestry is preserved for those uses, doesn't turn into housing developments and can even be passed down from generation-to-generation of family farmers without a prohibitive tax burden. In Montana where there's been tons issues over access to public lands blocked by private landowners, they're playing a key role in preserving that access. The Land Trust Alliance is a great place to find your local land trust: https://www.findalandtrust.org/ https://www.findalandtrust.org/ I expect you'll be surprised at the amount of "good for your community" work they're doing.
