About Us
Remember your favorite
childhood meadows and forests?


LandChoices is an all volunteer 501c3 national non-profit organization.

We offer effective alternatives to what you may feel is an unwelcome 'inevitable' - the loss of your favorite natural areas, working farms and wildlife.

What Our Members Say
"LandChoices' efficient media strategy of delivering critical land protection information to targeted landowners and communities inspired me to invest... LandChoices' work is just as essential as a land conservancy. We need both."
Gale Dettling (MI) (Family owns 40 acres in northern Michigan.)

Mission
Preserve the places you cherish by informing and involving landowners and communities and providing actionable information about choices that preserve land.

Why I Started LandChoices
Kirt Manecke, Founder
"As a child I explored woods and orchards. I started LandChoices after seeing these lands needlessly ripped up for "cookie-cutter" subdivisions."
Kirt Manecke, Founder and President

What We Do
We offer choices to landowners. We use the power of the media to inform, involve and inspire action.

Conservation Subdivisons
More than 5,000 acres are lost to development every day. We are the first and only group with a national campaign promoting conservation subdivisions to protect clean water, working farms and wildlife on lands slated for subdivision development.

Informing Landowners
Up To 90% of landowners don't realize they have choices beyond selling land for development! LandChoices is one of the only groups informing landowners nationwide about ways to preserve land.

Saving Camps for Kids
We are the first and only group with a national program to help preserve Boy Scout, Girl Scout, YMCA and other camps and their wilderness lands for kids.
