Land Protection Update
At the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy, we think about our landscape less in terms of political boundaries and more in terms of watersheds, rivers, scenic transportation corridors, and the vital clusters of our region's working farms and forests.
By thinking about our community in this way, we are able to evaluate how certain land uses and protection efforts in specific areas will impact some of the things our community members value the most – access to our region's majestic shorelines; opportunities for hiking, biking, hunting, canoeing, birding, fishing and other outdoor recreation activities; safe, clean drinking water; a sense of rural character; respect for private property rights; and a healthy economy.
