My wife and I visited a lawyer recently to update our will and establish a "trust" where we are putting our land/house into this trust to avoid probate later. As part of the questioning from our lawyer with regards to "what if" type questions, he asked what we would like to happen with our land/assets if there was an accident that took out both of us and our kids...would we want to leave it to a charity etc. That got me thinking I'd really like to leave our land to an organization that would keep the land "land". Not develop it and just keep it wild. I have done some searching and come across ways to leave it to places like Pheasants Forever...but when I read the fine print it sounds like they normally sell properties left to them to fund other initiatives/aquisitions.
Do any of you have experience with or know of an organization that might keep land/property intact for conservation/wildlife?
Any suggestions are appreciated. Obviously I hope we never have to use this option, but while we are going through this process I'd like to give an answer that covers this scenario. Thanks.
