Sycamore Land Trust

Sycamore is a nonprofit conservation organization founded in 1990, and serving southern Indiana from Morgan County south to the Ohio River. We protect land and restore natural habitat: Sycamore protects land by owning and caring for nature preserves, and by holding conservation easements that protect privately-owned properties. We acquire land through donations, purchases, and bargain sales (partial donations). Sycamore protects more than 11,500 acres of land, and acquires more each year (about 250 acres per year on average). This includes old-growth forest, wetlands, prairies, former farms reverting to nature, working family farms, and land that was once stripmines - but is now restored to lush prairie and wetlands bursting with wildlife. We steward our properties with projects like tree plantings, invasive species removal, and native species plantings. We connect people to nature: We believe building the next generation of conservationists is critical to the future of this movement. Connecting people to nature is at the core of Sycamore’s work. We maintain 16 public nature preserves in southern Indiana with 35 miles of hiking trails, and provide environmental educat.
