Conservation Easements in Tennessee

Conservation easements can meet the needs of interested owners of working farms, ranches, timberlands, sporting properties, and recreational lands, who wish to protect valuable natural resources while retaining ownership of the property. A perpetual conservation easement allows a landowner to protect key natural habitats of a property while continuing to use the area for economic gain or recreation.

Accomplishments
Through May 1, 2004, Ducks Unlimited has protected 2,280 acres of forested wetlands via donated conservation easements in Tennessee. (Press Release)
