About ParkLands Foundation
|
| |
ParkLands Foundation protects and restores natural lands in the Mackinaw River valley of McLean and Woodford
counties. Our goal is to create a network of conservation lands corridors along the Mackinaw River and its
tributaries. Since its founding in 1967, the organization has protected and restored (through ownership,
intermediary conservation buyer or conservation easement) more than 3,200 acres pf prairie, savanna, floodplain
forest and river habitat in the Mackinaw River valley of McLean, Tazewell and Woodford counties, and in other
watersheds within McLean County. This includes two Illinois Nature Preserves that are owned (Ridgetop NP,
Merwin NP), one that we manage in conjunction with our owned buffer strip (Weston Cemetery NP) and one that
we donated to the IDNR (ParkLands NP). This also includes one designated Illinois Land and Water Reserve
that we own; we are in the process of dedicating three additional owned preserves within this program.
