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.

| Description: | A $187,042 grant was awarded to the Waterford Foundation for assistance with the costs associated with reducing development density on two tracts within the boundaries of the National Historic Landmark - The North Meadow and the Carr Properties. The Foundation purchased both tracts, which are now held as privately-owned residential lots subject to easements. The easements reduced the density of development so as not to threaten the integrity of the historic landmark. |
