Did you know more than 100,000 plants thrive at Stoneleigh: a natural garden? Grab gloves and join staff and fellow volunteers for seasonal garden projects. […]
make a date with nature
With 23,000+ acres of land across two states and 13 counties, there’s a lot to explore.
find yourself outside
From yoga to bird walks to volunteering, we offer events year-round.
why protecting land matters
Every acre we save cleans and cools the air we breathe, soaks up floodwaters, provides wildlife with habitat, filters the water we drink, and brings humans improved health and joy.
donate now
More than ever, “forever” depends on what we do today. Together we can make a difference.
natives are nice
Native plants feed native insects, which are the foundation of life on this planet. Every yard, garden, and patio pot needs more natives.
