VLCF Funded Projects
Virginia’s working farms and forests, battlefields and other historic sites, natural areas, parks and rivers are critical to its economy, culture and quality of life. In 1999, the assembly and governor established the Virginia Land Conservation Foundation (VLCF) to fund protection of these resources. The interactive map below depicts VLCF-grant projects funded since 2000.

A $50,975 grant was awarded to Brunswick County to acquire a 64-acre tract recognized by the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register. The project would have protected the historic and archeological integrity of the site and to prevent a clear-cut operation that would impact the fort sites. This project was withdrawn.
