Flathead Land Trust
Overview
Our Mission
FLT is dedicated to voluntary conservation and thoughtful stewardship of private lands. We initiate and support conservation easements that enhance NW Montana's working and scenic landscapes, open spaces, river corridors, wetlands and wildlife habitats. We collaborate with family farmers and ranchers, with foresters and outdoor enthusiasts, indeed with people from all walks of life as thoughtful stewards of the flathead.
