About
Land protection: Sycamore permanently protects the beautiful natural heritage of southern Indiana by owning land and holding permanent conservation easements on private properties. We have completed over 100 projects to protect a total of nearly 10,000 acres. We own, manage and restore more than 6,000 acres of forests, wetlands and grasslands, including formerly mined or farmed land. We have built and maintain trails for free public use at 16 nature preserves to enable environmentally friendly recreation and education. Sycamore holds conservation easements on nearly 4,000 acres of privately owned properties to protect their conservation values. We have also invested resources to protect an additional 10,000 acres owned by other organizations.
