A Place in the Land is a 1998 American short documentary film directed by Charles Guggenheim with field director Judith Dwan Hallet. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short.
A Place in the Land considers the history of conservation stewardship in America as reflected in the property of Billings Farm, an operating dairy farm in Woodstock, Vermont first established in 1871, and the 555-acre (2.25 km2) Mount Tom, as well as through the work of George Perkins Marsh, Frederick Billings, and Laurance Rockefeller, who were successive residents of the estate.
