Where Conservation Meets Community
At Southeastern Trust for Parks and Land, we believe that protecting natural lands creates lasting benefits for people, communities, and the environment. Across the Southeast, we work to conserve special places, support environmental stewardship and science education, and create opportunities for people to explore, connect with, and enjoy the outdoors.
Our work brings together landowners, community organizations, public agencies, and individuals who share a commitment to protecting the Southeast’s natural heritage. Through conservation partnerships, grants, and generous community support, we help preserve the places that make our communities special—and ensure they remain a part of our shared future.
Together, we’re protecting the land we love and strengthening the communities that call it home.

This preserved property holds a special place in the Southeastern Trust’s history, as it was the first property donated to the Trust outside of Georgia. Today, its 730 acres offer breathtaking views and miles of scenic hiking trails for visitors to explore.
We’re grateful to celebrate and help preserve places like this, especially during the vibrant colors of fall!

While last week’s Plant Spotlight featured a native fern, this week we’re shifting our focus to the opposite: an invasive fern found across many of our parks!
Autumn Fern is considered a relatively new invader in the Southeast and has been rapidly spreading through natural areas after being introduced as an ornamental garden plant. Unfortunately, its ability to spread quickly can allow it to outcompete native fern species, which provide valuable habitat and resources for native insects, amphibians, and mammals.
