VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

Conserving land where people and nature can thrive.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Fee Land Acquisition: When it comes to effectively conserving our most significant unprotected lands, working together is key. Collaboration and collective action enable us to scale solutions across landscapes; engage groups at national, state, and local levels; and better mobilize funding to make a greater conservation impact. TennGreen Land Conservancy works closely with fellow conservationists, community leaders, and government partners to help them acquire important properties and connected spaces for wildlife habitat, our health, our communities, and our enjoyment. Conservation Easements: Conservation easements are voluntary, legal agreements designed to forever protect important natural resources from detrimental land practices. By conserving a property with a conservation easement, landowners can preserve their vision for the land and also create a lasting legacy. If you're interested in conserving your land for future generations, trust TennGreen Land Conservancy's proven environmental stewards to guide you through your options. Conservation easements are voluntary legal agreements designed to forever protect your vision for your land and its important natural resources. Every easement is tailored to your unique conservation goals; you retain your rights to continue owning and using your land, to sell it, and to pass it down to your heirs. Restoration: TennGreen Land Conservancy assists landowners with special restoration projects on their properties. Restoration work can include treating diseased native plants, managing grasslands, planting native trees, removing invasive species, enhancing wetlands, and cleaning up trash in our rivers and streams. Restoration is an important tool to improve and protect conservation values on a property. Outreach & Education: Our individual physical, intellectual and spiritual well-being is dependent upon access to and experiences in beautiful, natural spaces; we need places to hike and play. We acknowledge that many within Tennessee may not understand the value of our natural assets. It is, therefore, our responsibility to listen, learn, engage, and provide many of the educational tools and experiences necessary to build awareness, relevance, and trust, to ensure that our work is honored in perpetuity. There's something for everyone as we explore the best of Tennessee through an array of guided nature walks, paddling adventures, cycling excursions, education presentations, and more!
