The Land Group
The Land Group began with founder Benjamin Alder’s desire for deep-rooted understanding of land, conservation, and connections between natural and economic systems. Unlike traditional real estate firms, TLG was built with a focus on land as both a resource and an investment, united by a shared passion for preserving and maximizing the potential of the land. It started with a vision. It started with the land.
At The Land Group, our mission goes beyond selling land—we’re dedicated to solving real challenges for landowners, agribusinesses, and natural resource stewards in the Chesapeake region. With deep expertise in land use, conservation, and economic forces, we provide strategic solutions for poultry farmers, timberland owners, organic producers, and more. Our intentions and innovations are what help clients navigate the complex realm of land management while preserving the region’s agricultural and natural resources. Along the way, “We Sell Dirt.”

Our vision and intention have a common thread—a common relationship between land and agribusiness in the Chesapeake region. Farmers, watermen, and land managers understand that long-term success depends on balancing resource use with conservation. The nature of the job is to adapt, innovate, and work within their communities to ensure sustainability. At The Land Group, we want to cultivate this relationship and provide the expertise to help you navigate it for lasting success.

69.43 acres of transitional land positioned within one of Charles County`s most active residential growth corridors. Fronting Billingsley Road, policy-supported by the County`s Comprehensive Plan, and surrounded by established and expanding subdivisions, this isn`t speculative land.

The Clifton Farm Tract spans approximately 657.87 acres and is distinguished by its combination of scale, access, and evolving landscape character within the Dragon Run watershed. The property benefits from direct road frontage along Lovers Retreat Lane on its eastern boundary, providing strong access supported by an internal network of well-maintained roads. Portions of the tract reflect a recent cutover transitioning into grassland and early successional habitat, creating an increasingly open, upland-oriented feel. This dynamic land condition enhances both usability and habitat diversity, while the tract remains protected under a conservation easement held by The Nature Conservancy and managed as a working forest—balancing ecological preservation with sustainable timber management.
