Mission Statement
Conserve, steward, and advocate for the unique rural landscape of the Eastern Shore.
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day we honor the life and legacy of the civil rights hero who urged our fellow citizens to ensure that our country lived up to its democratic creed that “all are created equal”. As we celebrate his legacy today, in 2021, we recognize that Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.’s message is more important and more urgent than ever.
Over the last few weeks, ESLC has been promoting its workshop series titled Solutions for a Changing Delmarva to help attendees learn about climate issues in their community. We hosted the first workshop on Tuesday, January 12th, and we had an amazing turnout with more than 130 guests.
Eastern Shore Land Conservancy's Center for Towns creates and promotes safe and equitable access to parks, trails, and other public spaces throughout the region. By highlighting these community assets, within and between Eastern Shore towns, we seek to increase public usage and support of public open spaces to ensure that all citizens have a deeper connection to land and place.
Eastern Shore Land Conservancy (ESLC) is pleased to announce closing on a new conservation easement! The easement, completed in partnership with the U.S. Army and Maryland Department of Natural Resources (MD DNR), protects 441 acres of agricultural land and critical species habitat with scenic value, off Back Creek and McGill Creek in Cecil County.
All of us at Eastern Shore Land Conservancy are deeply saddened by the passing of long time Chestertown Mayor Margo Bailey.
