Public lands bring us together🌿 They give us places to explore, make memories with friends, and reconnect with the natural world around us. From a hike on a local trail to a day on a Texas river, these essential shared spaces provide opportunities for everyone to get outside.🙌

This National Public Lands Day, celebrate the places that belong to all of us and the communities that come together to care for them. Get outside, explore somewhere new, and celebrate the public lands that make Texas such a special place to call home. 💚

Swipe to see some ways you can celebrate! Soooo, what are your plans today?👀

A huge shoutout to INTERA Inc.'s Austin offices for helping protect critical Texas waterways! Last Saturday, these volunteers removed 225 pounds of litter and debris from the Onion Creek watershed at their third annual cleanup💧🚯

In the three events we've partnered with INTERA, volunteers have helped remove over 850 pounds of litter!👏 Thank you, INTERA, for supporting Great Springs Project's work, and for your stewardship of these special places.

GSP's volunteer program is possible thanks to the support of H-E-B. Want your organization to join in a GSP cleanup? Message us today!

Central Texas is growing rapidly, and the land around our communities is changing with it.

A new Texas A&M Natural Resources Institute analysis shows that working lands across Texas face increasing fragmentation risk, including lands within Central Texas and the greater Texas Hill Country.

Connected farms, ranches, forests, and natural areas help protect water resources, provide wildlife habitat, support healthy ecosystems, sustain working lands, and create opportunities for people to enjoy the outdoors. As our region grows, strategic conservation can help us protect the natural systems that make Central Texas such a special place to live.
