Land Protection and Stewardship
GTA is a cooperating land trust with Maryland Environmental Trust and a Land Trust Member of the Land Trust Alliance, and is currently applying for Land Trust Accreditation. We can serve as the long-term steward for restoration and easement properties and have experience in doing so with properties and easements. In addition, we have experience in acting as a short-term steward of properties or easements being transitioned to public agency ownership. Click on any of the projects below to learn more about some of our current easements.
Flat Swamp Preserve
This 386-acre project site in North Carolina restored the site’s former hydrology and forest vegetation. These restored forested wetlands now provide a significant improvement to the water quality, biodiversity and habitat of this degraded section of the Middle Neuse River Watershed.
