  • Volunteer with MDLT

    Volunteers have been central to all of MDLT’s major achievements. What makes our volunteer community unique is our connection to the desert landscape. Much like the ecosystems and species that we strive to protect, everyone possesses a unique set of skills, knowledge, and perspectives that help MDLT achieve conservation milestones.

  • Land acquisition & stewardship

    The Mojave Desert Land Trust acquires and permanently protects ecologically significant land throughout the California desert. We focus on parcels within national parks and preserves, wilderness areas, areas of critical environmental concern, and wildlife corridors. MDLT has conveyed more tracts of land to the National Park system nationwide than any other non-profit since 2006.

  • Native plant propagation & seed bank

    MDLT’s plant conservation program includes a native plant nursery, a conservation seed bank, and a demonstration garden. We grow native plants for desert restoration projects and to empower locals to plant native plants at home. The Mojave Desert Seed Bank serves as an insurance policy for the desert’s future.

  • Education & outreach

    Successful, long-term conservation of the desert depends on community engagement. We work to keep the public informed about current research and policies affecting the California desert region. Our volunteer and education programs serve to train new desert conservationists who will carry our mission on for years to come.
