Smile Enviornment Conservation Easement

We recently bought a home that has over 50% of the land allocated as an "Open Space" since there is a stream that flows through the property.

How do we convert that part of the land into a conservation easement and take advantage of tax breaks since the land is not buildable anyways?

Any other tips on managing this parcel that we cannot use?
