TO PROTECT THE NATURAL DIVERSITY AND BEAUTY OF NORTHEAST MICHIGAN BY PRESERVING SIGNIFICANT LAND AND SCENIC AREAS AND FOSTERING APPRECIATION AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE ENVIRONMENT.

HEADWATERS LAND CONSERVANCY MONITORED THE 86 CONSERVATION EASEMENTS AND 6 NATURE PRESERVES WE HOLD IN OUR 11 COUNTY SERVICE AREA OF NORTHEAST MICHIGAN. THESE PROPERTIES PROTECT OVER 11,000 ACRES OF LAND AND 32 MILES OF WATERFRONT. IN MANY CASES, WE WERE JOINED BY THE PROPERTY OWNERS AND WERE ABLE TO ENCOURAGE RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP. SEVERAL LANDOWNERS EXERCISED RESERVED RIGHTS AND WORKED CLOSELY WITH HEADWATERS TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONSERVATION EASEMENT.

THE CONSERVANCY HELD NUMEROUS EVENTS FOCUSING ON EDUCATING THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE IMPORTANCE OF PROTECTING NATURAL LAND. WE PARTNERED WITH SEVERAL GROUPS WITH A VARIETY OF AGE RANGES INCLUDING LOCAL SCHOOLS. AN EXAMPLE OF A FEW OF THOSE EVENTS ARE: WILDLIFE EXHIBITS,SNOWSHOE HIKES, BIRD AND WILDLIFE HIKES, SCAVENGER HUNT, AND OTHERS. NUMEROUS SITE VISITS TO HIGH PRIORITY PARCELS WERE ALSO COMPLETED IN 2019, WHICH WE HOPE WILL LEAD TO PERMANENT LAND PROTECTION IN THE FUTURE.
