Our Mission

The Land Trust of the Treasure Valley's mission is to create opportunities for conserving the natural, scenic, recreational, historic and agricultural values of southwestern Idaho's open spaces through collaborative efforts for current and future generations.

The Land Trust identifies lands with special natural, scenic, recreational and agricultural values, and works with willing landowners to conserve these lands through acquisition, easement, education, and good stewardship.

Our Vision

Abundant open space exists in the Treasure Valley for recreation, scenic vistas and wildlife as a natural heritage for our children. Our communities are thriving, buffered from one another by lush and productive farmlands. The signature features of the area - the Foothills and the Boise River - remain largely in their natural state, contributing as they have historically to our exceptional quality of life.

Our Primary Goals

  1. To define areas of significant natural, scenic, recreational and historic value in the Treasure Valley.
  2. To protect these special places through cooperative arrangements with landowners.
  3. To build understanding of the many values of open space in community and business leaders, and families of the Treasure Valley.
