The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is Canada's leading national land conservation organization. As a private, non-profit organization, we partner with individuals, corporations, foundations, Indigenous Nations and communities, other non-profit organizations, and governments at all levels to protect the natural areas that sustain Canada’s plants, wildlife, and people. We secure properties (through donation, purchase, conservation agreement and the relinquishment of other legal interests in land) and manage them for the long term.

NCC’s first project in Alberta was in 1970. Since then, we have conserved over 468,000 hectares of this province's most ecologically significant lands and waters.
