Purchasing a one-time membership today helps protect the land, water, and wildlife you care about. Your membership supports our work and makes a real difference in conserving Central Algoma’s natural spaces.

Setting up an annual membership renewal is a simple way to support conservation year after year. You set it once, and your membership stays active without any hassle or need to remember.

You can gift a Central Algoma Land Trust membership to your family members and friends as a meaningful way to share your passion for conservation.
