We have been committed to linking community and conservation – people and place.
We implement our mission through land
Forterra innovates and scales land-based solutions to address the climate crisis and support equitable, green and prosperous communities.
HOW
DO WE ACHIEVE THIS?
find out more
How do we achieve this? • We implement our mission through land: how it is owned, stewarded, developed and financed. • We use our expertise in land-based programs to help ensure that our communities are thriving socially and economically. • We demonstrate equitable solutions that enable collaboration and self-determination of the communities we serve. • We institute landscape-scale approaches that address climate change, social equity and population growth.

ARE THE IMPACTS?
find out more
What are the impacts? • We’ve conserved more than 265,000 acres of community, habitat and recreational land, ensuring the protection of critical conservation and community assets. • We’ve managed hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours, ensuring beloved spaces and urban forests remain vital and vibrant community spaces. • And – we’re linking conservation and community-driven development to build affordable housing and spaces. Currently we are developing 1,000 homes and developing 80,000 square feet of commercial space for BIPOC businesses.
