Is an EBCLT Lease a good fit for me?

Here is a set of questions for potential Land Users to ask themselves to help determine a “good fit” with Earth Bridge Community Land Trust (EBCLT):

  • Do I want to live on this leased land and in the town where it’s located?

  • Am I willing to become a member of a community that maintains an alternative culture regarding land ownership, stewardship, and land transactions?

  • Am I committed to putting stewardship of the land and the well-being of the Land Trust community at the forefront of my plans?

  • Do I understand the limitations of an EBCLT lease and support the philosophy behind them?

  • Do I have the patience (both in acquiring a lease and for the long term) to be an active member of organization that can be slow moving, is imperfect, but is firmly rooted in strong ideals?
