TAR RIVER LAND CONSERVANCY
is a non-profit organization working to protect farms, forests, water, wildlife and scenic rural landscapes in the counties of the Upper Tar River Basin.

HOW DOES TAR RIVER LAND CONSERVANCY SAVE THE PLACES WE LOVE?

Tar River Land Conservancy works with public and private landowners, businesses and others to negotiate permanent conservation easement agreements that protect natural and heritage resources important to our communities.

HOW DOES MY FAMILY AND MY COMMUNITY BENEFIT FROM TAR RIVER LAND CONSERVANCY'S WORK?

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 economy. It means that miles of scenic stream and river corridors, wide rolling landscapes, and woodlands will be protected forever: for our future health, enjoyment and economic well-being.

Protecting Our Land and Water Today

WHAT IS OUR GOAL?

Tar River Land Conservancy has partnered with dozens of landowners and now has nearly 150 conservation agreements in place. We currently protect over 12,000 acres of farms, forests, waterways and wildlife habitat. By 2010, we intend to protect 15,000 total acres of critical land across our eight-county service area.

 


 


We're Saving the Places You Love in Person, Vance, Granville, Franklin, Warren, Halifax, Nash and Edgecombe Counties.
