About Upper Hammonds Plains Community Land Trust

Established in 2022, UHPCLT emerged as a response to the increasing concerns within our community, with a commitment to strengthening, protecting, and preserving the historical and sacred lands of Upper Hammonds Plains. Our mission is centered around providing affordable housing and preserving the African Nova Scotian culture and heritage through collective land ownership and responsible stewardship. We envision Upper Hammonds Plains as a community where affordable and secure land ownership is a reality, achieved through community-led development that is deeply rooted in cultural traditions and social equity. Aspiring to be a leader in developing community land trusts within Black communities provincially and nationally, UHPCLT is dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage and economic prosperity of our neighborhoods, while creating opportunities for Black families and individuals to access affordable housing, economic opportunities, and the tools necessary for building intergenerational wealth.
