The Singing River Trail will hold a listening session in Huntsville on Tuesday night about the trail work in our area.

The next chapter of the Singing River Trail starts with your input. 👏

Our original master plan was completed in 2019, outlining more than 70 miles across Madison, Morgan and Limestone counties. Seven years later, our communities have grown, priorities have evolved and it’s time to take another look at what comes next.

Join us October 6 for a public input session where you can share your ideas and help inform the updated master plan.

📍 TARCOG Building, 4976 Corporate Dr NW, Huntsville, AL 35805
🗓 October 6 | 5–7 p.m.

We’d love to hear from you, and we hope to see you there!

Mill Creek Nature Preserve opens in Madison https://whnt.com/news/madison/mill-creek-nature-preserve-opens-madison/

10/03/2026

Come see us in Downtown Madison today for this year's Madison Street Festival.

10/02/2026

It was a beautiful day for a grand opening!

The Balch Road Trailhead by the historic Gray Cemetery is now officially open. These gentle, short loop trails are perfect for the whole family.

This trailhead is just the first completed phase of what will become a larger network of trails and a greenway: Mill Creek Nature Preserve.

We want to thank our hardworking MG&T trailcare volunteers, the Land Trust of North Alabama staff, the City of Madison staff, Mayor Ranae Bartlett, City Councilpersons Maura Wroblewski, Kenneth Jackson, Erica White, and the rest of the City Council for their efforts and their support for green spaces within Madison.

MG&T will be at the Madison Street Festival again this year. If you are planning to go, here are some great tips.

Our friends at Huntsville Environmental Coalition are hosting a nonpartisan voting research party this week. At least one MG&T board member will be present. MG&T would love to do more conservation-related work (and legislation plays a large role in whether we are conserving our natural resources), and we are seeking a lead for our conservation committee.

Wednesday September 30 at 6pm CT, CCL and local environmental friends are holding a Voter research party + happy hour.

Grab a favorite beverage, and let's get some voting homework done! We'll look at our ballots, get our questions answered, get registered, find our polling place and figure out a voting plan. This will be informal and fun, new and experienced voters are all welcome. And we'll enjoy a little community while we participate in our civic actions.

We will not tell you who you should vote for, but we will make space and share resources of how we make our own voting decisions.

RSVPs are not required, but will be appreciated as we are planning for a high attendance! We will meet at the SW covered patio of Yellowhammer Brewing facing the Butler Green lawn.

If you haven’t received an email from MG&T recently, please check your spam and promotional folders.

We have a large and ever-growing email list, so we now need to use an email service to help us organize and send emails and newsletters (a “problem” we are happy and thankful to have).

You can also add [email protected] to your favorites.

We are also working on providing more customization for those who only want to receive certain information (trail care only, for example).

Thank you, everyone, for your continued support and for being patient with us as we grow.
