The American Chestnut Land Trust (ACLT) is a non-profit land preservation area and organization in Calvert Co., Maryland, an hour drive from both D.C. and Baltimore, featuring the 3,400 acre "Parkers Creek Preserve". ACLT offers 22 miles of trails (free!), guided canoe/kayak trips up the beautiful creek, and tons of events and activities celebrating this beautiful region and the Chesapeake Bay. Dedicated to caring for the land, ACLT also manages a small farm, educational garden and food forest all focused on regenerative and perma-culture growing systems. 75% of the harvest - more then 7,000 lbs in 2017 - is donated to a local food pantry. There are so many ways to get involved with caring for the land and sharing it with the community!
