The Conservancy was formed to filla land conservation vacuum along the middle Potomac and lower Shenandoah Rivers. Based in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, the Conservancy is a Maryland non-profit corporation and also operates in Virgina and West Virginia.

Harpers Ferry is the focal point for the larger landscape the Conservancy seeks to protect. Situated at the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers, the town of Harpers Ferry is surrounded by the 2300 acre Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. Created in 1944, the Park interprets historical themes including John Brown's Raid, the Civil War, the outfitting of the Lewis and Clark expedition, and the genesis of the NAACP at the former Storer College.
