Land Conservation
PEC has helped landowners permanently protect over 325,000 acres of rural or natural land. Conservation Easements help ensure that the Virginia Piedmont is always characterized by its open spaces, healthy environment, and cultural resources.
PEC and the Piedmont Foundation are applying for accreditation as organizations that meet national quality standards for protecting important natural places and working lands forever.
