WE'RE
SAVING THE PLACES YOU LOVE
Our
region is a beautiful patchwork of farms, forests, streams
and scenic rural landscapes. The land and how it has been
used for generations is a significant part of our heritage
and history. It also provides a quiet escape from the rest
of the world. Residents enjoy a rural lifestyle here, while
visitors enjoy touring local farms and historic sites, canoeing
the Tar River, hunting, horseback riding, and other outdoor
adventures.
Tar River
Land Conservancy protects
the natural and heritage resources that make
our region a beautiful and healthy place to live, work, play
and come home to. We accomplish
our goals by
working with landowners to secure voluntary permanent conservation
easement agreements that protect these resources, which are
so important to our communities at large.
WE'RE
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Tar River Land Conservancy
is a locally-based, grassroots non-profit organization. Since
we were chartered in 2000, we have partnered with dozens of
landowners to secure nearly 150 conservation agreements protecting
over 12,000 acres of land and 119 miles of creeks, streams
and river frontage in our communities. What does that mean?
It means we will all have cleaner air to breath and water
to drink, more opportunities for outdoor recreation, and sustainable
working farms that can contribute to our local economies.
It means that miles of scenic stream and river corridors,
wide rolling landscapes and woodlands will be protected forever:
for our health, enjoyment and economic well-being.
