Welcome

Legacy Land Trust is a community-sponsored land preservation organization working with willing landowners to permanently protect land in the greater Houston region. We preserve river and bayou corridors, other properties with significant wildlife habitat value and places where family recreation can occur in harmony with nature. Our "No Child Left Inside" education program connects tomorrow's conservation leaders with nature today.

Legacy is proud to have conserved over 8,000 acres in the greater Houston region.

Interested in hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, or birding? Are you looking for a place to get out and see nature? Do you need a place to ride your horse? LLT encourages our community to visit our free public preserves to responsibly enjoy the outdoors.

Upcoming Events

"Know your Watershed" coming up later this year, more details to follow.

Picnic at the Preserve - May 1, 2010 Recap

Even with the heat and humidity we had a great time at our 2010 Picnic at the Preserve! We want to thank all of our participants who made this such a wonderful event.

It was great to see the kids having fun wrapping the may-pole, dip-netting, and snacking on ripe dewberries. View all of the event activities at our 2010 Picnic at the Preserve photo recap page.

We are already looking forward to next year's picnic!

Thank you again to our top sponsors:

ExxonMobil

Julie and Paul Herman
Oppenheimer Foundation
