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.

🌲 NEW LISTING: Saulters Branch Hunting Retreat: Milford, DE 🦆
Once a working farm, the tillable ground along McColley Road was planted to pines and hardwoods back in 2004 — and two decades later, that young forest has grown into real cover for white-tailed deer and turkey.
Follow the woods back and the land gives way to marsh, with +/-0.3 miles of shoreline on the Mispillion River and a network of guts running straight through the property`s heart. Located just miles from Prime Hook NWR and other protected habitat along the Atlantic Flyway, it`s easy to see why waterfowl have made this stretch home.
A great fit for a hunter, birder, or anyone looking for their own private retreat. Contact Bobby for more details: bobby@thelandgroup.us or 302-542-5724
