Organization: THE LAND TRUST OF NORTH ALABAMA INC
Mission: TO PRESERVE AND PROTECT NORTH ALABAMA LAND AND ITS LEGACIES FOR CONSERVATION, PUBLIC RECREATION, AND ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION.
Activities: During FY 2019, the Land Trust of North Alabama (LTNA) continued programs in furtherance of our mission to protect and preserve land and its legaciesfor conservation, public recreation and environmental education. The LTNA provided a wide range of environmental education opportunities through field trips and outdoor excursions on several of our preserved properties. We manage and maintain seven nature preserves, all of which are open to the general public for recreational pursuits including hiking, biking, wildlife viewing, photography, picnicking, bird watching and fishing. Two of our nature preserves also allow horseback riding opportunities. A series of educational and recreational hikes were hosted throughout the year. Additionally, the LTNA raised public awareness of our mission and importance of land preservation through our concert series held at a unique outdoor venue called Three Caves. Not only do our events held there bring in great artists to the community, but also allow us to share our message to a whole new audience of potential preservation advocates.
