Slow and Steady: Bog Turtles at Home on Private Lands
-
As a result of the Delaware Watershed Conservation Fund, agricultural landowners in New Jersey are changing management practices on their land to support the bog turtle, a species listed as threatened in the northern part of its range under the federal Endangered Species Act.
The beauty is, farmers aren’t just changing their practices because it’s good for the turtle; they are changing their practices because it’s good for business.

Based in Georgia, the Southern Conservation Trust is a US 501 (c)(3) public charity, EIN 58-2036727 that elevates nature through exceptional stewardship through over 57,000 acres of conserved land and public lands throughout the United States (Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Virginia, Colorado, Texas, and Kentucky) including 8 public nature areas in Fayette County, Georgia.

Preserving nature is what gives us joy! So we’re focused on making sure that everyone has access to nature. We develop public nature areas, provide environmental education, and conserve tens of thousands of acres of land, waterways, and valuable habitat each year.
We depend on the ongoing support of individuals and corporate partners to ensure that the work we do will continue well into the future. We’re proud to say that we’ve been protecting the land we love and providing environmental education since 1993.
