Las granjas y los bosques, los campos de batalla y otros sitios históricos, las áreas naturales, los parques y los ríos de Virginia son fundamentales para su economía, cultura y calidad de vida. En 1999, la asamblea y el gobernador establecieron la Fundación de Conservación de la Tierra de Virginia (VLCF) para financiar la protección de estos recursos. El mapa interactivo a continuación muestra los proyectos subvencionados por VLCF financiados desde 2000.

| Descripción: |
The American Battlefield Trust received a VLCF grant to preserve the 152.18-acre Hylton Tract at Bristoe Station Battlefield in Bristow through fee acquisition and an open-space easement to be held by the Virginia Board of Historic Resources (VBHR). The tract includes 150 acres in the battlefield's Core Area and two acres in its Study Area. The 1993 Civil War Sites Advisory Commission identifies the site as Priority I.3 (Class B) for Bristoe Station and Priority IV.1 (All classes) for Manassas Station Operations. The agricultural tract adjoins Bristoe Station Battlefield Heritage Park and land owned by the Trust that is, or will be, under easement with VBHR and transferred to Prince William County for inclusion in the public park. The property borders Bristow Road and the Norfolk Southern Railway and includes 2,450 feet of intermittent streams, 10 acres of wetlands, two ponds, and 28 acres of forestland. The Trust will initially steward the property and offer periodic tours. It is expected the land will be transferred to Prince William County for long-term protection, interpretation, and public access.
