Longleaf pine once blanketed more than 90 million acres across the southeastern U.S. coastal plains. Today, there are just over 5 million acres, or 5.5% of its original acreage. We hope you'll join us as we step virtually into this fire-dependent forest to see how TNC is protecting what’s left and reclaiming what’s been lost.
