SAHC has protected a variety of places that residents and visitors can appreciate — including tracts that have been transferred into public ownership, local farms producing healthy food, and views from scenic routes and iconic travel destinations. Here are a few ways you can explore the places we have helped protect.

Public Lands, Parks and National Forests

Some of the land SAHC protects is transferred to public ownership and can be visited and enjoyed by all. We’ve protected critical places which are now part of the Cherokee and Pisgah National Forests, Mt. Mitchell State Park in NC, Rocky Fork State Park in TN, and more.

Local Farms

Agricultural conservation easements help family farms continue producing local food while protecting land resources so they will be available for the future. You may recognize these farms at weekly markets, farm tours, or the menu at your favorite restaurant.
