Trust for Natural Legacies, Inc. is a non-profit land trust that preserves and restores natural areas by owning, operating and promoting nature preserves throughout the Midwest . We are committed to offering ecologically-sensitive programs on our nature preserves that provide public opportunities for recreation, education, scientific research and limited natural burial. These programs are critical to our mission, because they result in related environmental benefits to the community and generate long-term, multi-generational public attachment to and involvement in the nature preserves. By fostering strong, long-term family and community attachments to the nature preserves, these programs ensure that our preserves are socially, legally, spiritually and financially-sustainable.
