The Nature Conservancy. Protecting nature. Preserving life.™

Generation Conservation (Gen C)

Generation Conservation (Gen C) is a group of people who recognize the importance of taking care of our land and water for people and nature. Gen C membership is open to people in their 20s, 30s, or 40s in Middle Tennessee who enjoy the outdoors and want to learn how to protect it for future generations. 

Who Is Gen C?

Gen C brings together young Middle Tennesseeans who share a love of the outdoors, a concern for the environment and a belief that hope and action are indispensable for making a difference.

We host events throughout the year, including hikes, nature preserve trips and cocktail parties in Nashville and beyond. Find out about upcoming Gen C events.
