About The Tasmanian Land Conservancy
The Tasmanian Land Conservancy is a community group that conserves, enhances and protects Tasmania's natural environment by purchasing and managing private land in.
We are the only Tasmanian organisation whose mission it is to buy and manage important natural places throughout the state. Donations to the TLC are tax deductible.
Tasmania needs the TLC
Tasmania is a state known for its beauty and wild places. It has an impressive level of reservation on public land, yet many of the state's unique ecosystems, plants, and animals occur on private land.
As a result, places with high conservation value continue to be threatened by clearing, development, and land degredation. Shockingly, Tasmania has the second highest per-capita rate of land clearing in the country.
How does TLC conserve Tasmania
TLC protects important natural places in two ways:
Buying land to establish permanent reserves
Sometimes the only way to save natural places is to buy them. TLC identifies properties such as Long Point with important conservation values and raises the money to and manage them. We need your involvement and financial support to create and manage permanent reserves.
