With help from many supporters, we have protected more than 338,000 acres in Georgia, while also safeguarding the state’s rivers and coast.
Places We Protect
Broxton Rocks Preserve
A roaring waterfall rushing over rock ledges, cave-like crevices and 30-foot-high cliffs aren’t what normally come to mind when you think about Georgia’s coastal plain, but Broxton Rocks Preserve is unique.
Places We Protect
Heggie's Rock
Heggie’s Rock Preserve spans some 101 acres in Columbia County, about 20 miles from Augusta in eastern Georgia. With a perimeter of oaks, pines, and hickories, it is one of the finest remaining examples of a Piedmont flat rock outcrop in the U.S.
Places We Protect
Blacks Bluff
A steep mountainous outcrop of 500-million-year-old Conasauga limestone creates the perfect place for unique plants to thrive.
Places We Protect
Moody Forest Natural Area
At Moody Forest you will see old-growth longleaf and slash pines rise to guard the misty waters of the Altamaha River as it carves through cypress and tupelo swamps.
