Our Project Map

Southeastern Trust for Parks and Land makes use of natural land to foster natural land conservation; environmental stewardship; science education and research; and public recreation for the benefit of individuals and communities.

As our name indicates we are an active resource in land preservation and active usage spreading across the southeastern United States. We are a non-profit organization that relies on public support in the form of conservation endowment fees, privately and publicly funded grants, and financial contributions from individuals and community groups. We engage in relationships with other non-profit community groups to further the impact of our efforts.

Earlier this year, we partnered with local birder Mike Lloyd to install several Eastern Bluebird nest boxes throughout Talking Rock Nature Park. These nest boxes are designed to support local Eastern Bluebird populations while also providing valuable nesting habitat for other native cavity-nesting birds, including Tree Swallows, Carolina Chickadees, and Tufted Titmice.

If you spot one of our staff members monitoring the nest boxes during your visit, feel free to stop by and take a look inside with us! Were excited to learn more about the birds nesting at Talking Rock and hope to expand this initiative by installing additional bird boxes at other Southeastern Trust parks in the future.Image attachment

This week, were spotlighting a native wildflower of the eastern United States: Hoary Mountain Mint. This striking plant thrives in meadows, along roadsides, and in woodland openings. If youd like to see it in one of our parks, keep an eye on the roadsides at Talking Rock Nature Park, where it grows abundantly. Mountain Mint can reach an impressive 3–6 feet in height, making it easy to spot and during the summer, its leaves take on a distinctive silvery appearance, as though theyve been dusted with powdered sugar, adding to its unique charm.
