About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours 30 minutes

Limestone cedar glades are globally unique and fragile habitats found primarily in Middle Tennessee. Viewed historically as wastelands, they support a plant community of highly specialized species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world.

Join staff from TennGreen and Tennessee State Natural Areas for an easy ~2.5-mile stroll through Lamar Cedar Glades to learn about some of these unique plants and experience a few rare wildflowers in bloom. Please wear closed-toed shoes, bring water, and consider wearing bug spray. No dogs are allowed at this event.

Specific address details will be emailed upon registration.

Free for TennGreen members, $10 for non-members.

MISSION

TennGreen Land Conservancy’s mission is to conserve land where people and nature can thrive.

 

WHAT WE DO

Through sound science and partnerships, TennGreen Land Conservancy identifies and conserves land across Tennessee for wildlife corridors, critical habitat, and public benefit. TennGreen Land Conservancy protects, cares for, and connects people with Tennessee’s natural world by providing meaningful outdoor experiences, establishing conservation easements, supporting restoration efforts, and acquiring (or assisting in the acquisition of) privately-held land.

 

WHY PROTECT LAND?

Tennessee is known for its extraordinary beauty from the mighty Mississippi to the Great Smoky Mountains. Our rich forests, farms, and wetlands are not only our home but also home to a vast diversity of fish and wildlife. Tennessee is experiencing extreme human development pressure, and every missed opportunity to protect our unique lands is an irreversible loss to our future. We must act swiftly and smartly to protect the places that provide us all well-being and an unrivaled quality of life.

 

The future of our land, water, and wildlife depends on our attitudes and actions today. Our natural world needs us. There are many ways you can get involved. Click here to take action now!
