Resources for Landowners

Partnering with landowners is a true win-win. Our resources and programs help restore and protect Canada’s land and water, and can become an integral part of a landowner’s long-term management plan.

We offer specialized resources for different regions of Canada, based on conservation needs and landowner priorities. Learn about programs and information available for your area, or contact one of our provincial offices to speak with a conservation specialist directly.
