About Me

Our mission is to preserve and protect valuable natural areas and agricultural lands of the Florida Parishes for current and future generations.Faced with intensifying development pressures, the Florida Parishes region is rapidly losing its natural and agricultural assets. The opportunity to save what makes the Florida Parishes so unique is swiftly disappearing.As stewards of these treasured resources, landowners can serve an important role. We must act today to forever preserve our natural and agricultural heritage, for ourselves and our children.As a non-profit organization, the Land Trust for Southeast Louisiana (LTSL) works with individual landowners to protect natural assets on their property. LTSL accomplishes this through land donations, conservation easements, and purchases.For more information please visit us at http://www.ltsl.org/
