The Branford Land Trust protects nearly 1,500 acres of land in Branford. The Land Trust owns more than 15O parcels that it received as donations or purchased over the last 55 years. These parcels are organized into 59 Preserves (green on the map). In addition, the Land Trust holds 12 Conservation Easements (blue on the map), which protect open space owned by the Town and others in Branford from development.

Many of these preserves have hiking trails, which you can learn more about under TRAIL MAPS.
