Land Care Niagara

Land Care Niagara (LCN) is committed to creating a healthy and sustainable rural and urban environment, consisting of citizens who are knowledgeable and active in land resource management. As a not-for-profit community-based organization we seek to provide services and information to rural landowners and other users of private and public lands in Niagara through educational outreach, training initiatives, and land stewardship activities.

Company History

Established in 1995, LCN is one of the original 46 Stewardship Councils throughout Ontario that was formed by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources Ontario Stewardship Network. There are now only 14 councils remaining since the funding to the Ontario Stewardship Network was discontinued. Land Care Niagara has been involved in the planting of over 1.2 million trees in the Region of Niagara. This represents about 575 hectares of forest restored to trees.
