The 12 landowners profiled in the following pages have used conservation easements/servitudes to ensure their specific land use objectives in the future. The properties described in these profiles vary from a few acres of mixed upland hardwoods and pine to several thousand acres of pristine bottomland hardwood forest.

Any tax benefit associated with using a conservation easement/servitude is unique to the terms of the agreement and the landowner’s tax situation. Landowners should discuss the benefits of conservation easements/servitudes with experienced professionals to determine their impact on specific tax situations.
