VLCF Funded Projects
Virginia’s working farms and forests, battlefields and other historic sites, natural areas, parks and rivers are critical to its economy, culture and quality of life. In 1999, the assembly and governor established the Virginia Land Conservation Foundation (VLCF) to fund protection of these resources. The interactive map below depicts VLCF-grant projects funded since 2000.

| Description: |
Funding was requested by Spotsylvania County to acquire a public access recreational trail-way easement along a two-mile portion of the abandoned Virginia Central Railroad right-of-way. The trail-way corridor follows the Virginia Central Corridor, eventually connecting the City of Fredericksburg to Orange County through Spotsylvania County. With assistance of the VLCF grant award of $24,762, the trail segment will be a multi-use recreational trail serving bicycle, pedestrian, and equestrian users.
