Proyectos financiados por VLCF
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 Virginia Outdoors Foundation received a VLCF grant for the protection of a 950-acre Century Farm in Mecklenburg County that adjoins an existing 686-acre VOF easement. Successful conservation of this property will result in 1,600 contiguous acres of conserved land. The property is in active agricultural production, currently cultivating organic tobacco, corn, and beans, as well as maintaining cattle pastureland. With 509 acres of prime soils, designated by USDA, and 600 acres categorized by American Farmland Trust as either “exceptional” or “significant,” preservation of the property will ensure its availability for the future production of agricultural products. The property contains various water resources including streams and wetlands, which will be protected with forested riparian buffers.
