Restoring and protecting nature
Our ~2.25 acres of wetland purchased in January 2022 is a private preserve dedicated to nature.
Our Vision – Create and preserve a healthy natural ecosystem that holds floodwater, purifies water, and provides habitat and a corridor for wildlife to thrive. Creating this ecosystem will also provide green space for the well-being of the community for generations.
Our Mission – Leverage available resources to educate surrounding property owners and the community to restore and conserve available green space, creating a large, high-quality natural area and habitat.
Our Strategy – Collaborate with property owners surrounding the Aull Nature Preserve to restore and create conservation easement for their land.
