Equine Land Conservation Resource is a nonprofit based in Lexington, Kentucky, focused on protecting and conserving lands for the horse and horse-related activities. The organization aims to safeguard open spaces and contiguous land to support the nation’s equestrian heritage and the related emotional, physical, and economic benefits, addressing a recognized decline in available horse lands. Its work centers on providing accessible information, practical resources, and direct technical assistance to help horse enthusiasts and communities keep land open, including templates, outreach materials, and guides for engaging private landowners and public lands managers. ELCR serves a national audience of concerned citizens and local stakeholders seeking to preserve farms, trails, hayfields, and other horse lands, highlighting issues such as land use planning, conservation tools, and access to both private and public lands. The organization positions itself within the nonprofit sector of land conservation and trails advocacy, complementing larger environmental organizations by offering targeted guidance and practical support for preserving equine-enhancing spaces. A recent development noted is ELCR’s involvement in expanding a nationwide trail etiquette campaign and partnerships with other groups to advance equine land conservation efforts.
