Conserving land and water resources in the Saginaw Bay Watershed


Preserving Land and Water Resources in the Saginaw Basin

The Saginaw Basin Land Conservancy works to maintain the quality of life in the Saginaw Bay Watershed through the preservation of important wetlands, waterways and land of all types. 

The Conservancy is a non-profit charitable 501(c)(3) organization working within the Saginaw Basin. To date, the Conservancy has protected more than 304 acres in seven preserves and 4,282 acres in conservation agreements (easements) with 53 private landowners.

            Preserving our natural areas is more than keeping our landscapes beautiful. Natural areas provide a vital environmental filter against runoff, agricultural chemical spills and non-point pollution that can contaminate our water supply and degrade the habitat of wildlife throughout our region.

            Clean land helps to protect clean water. Clean, high quality water ensures the survival of many species, including us.

Preserving Nature Forever

            The Saginaw Basin Land Conservancy does not just save our natural areas once. Instead, we eagerly take on the responsibility to monitor and preserve critical, strategic land in mid-Michigan forever.

            Working to clean and protect the Saginaw Basin is not an easy task and would not be possible without the generous support of our donors and volunteers – won’t you join us today in one of our community’s most important efforts?

            Helping the Conservancy to preserve natural spaces preserves our best destiny — giving ourselves and our children the necessary natural tools to grow and thrive.
