The Linn Conservancy was founded in 1988 to honor the memory of Merrill W. Linn, a local attorney and outdoors man who spent much of his life exploring the woods, streams, fields, and byways surrounding his native Lewisburg, and sharing that experience and knowledge with others. In keeping with the tradition started by Merrill Linn, the Linn Conservancy seeks to protect and preserve significant ecological sites in the Union County and Upper Northumberland County region of Central Pennsylvania.

Identify, evaluate, and protect land using conservation easements, land gifts, and purchases;

Work cooperatively with other conservation organizations, government agencies, attorneys, estate planners, developers, and private citizens to protect land;

Provide non-destructive public access to appropriate protected lands for education and recreation;

Provide stewardship of protected lands and established trails;

Present tours, events, and public education programs to foster understanding of our natural resources.

Educate the public about critical local, regional, and national environmental issues.
