Private Lands Protection

Engaging private landowners sparks habitat conservation.

Habitat on private lands plays a critical role in bird conservation in the southeastern U.S. By engaging landowners in bird conservation and stewardship programs, we maximize the protection of North Carolina’s special places. But it is not just about birds, it is about the people who live there, too. By providing an opportunity for landowners to connect deeply with the wonder of their own land, Audubon NC’s assistance can help provide the gateway to a legacy of conservation.
