Building Communities for a New Nation

The fragmentation that exists in America created by issues of class, race, politics and privilege is directly played out in our organizations and our movements for change. Those who care about people and those who care about land, for example, are divided by isolated approaches, priorities and alliances.
Working in isolation from one another has challenged our ability to creatively and holistically confront the complex issues facing our communities in North Carolina. These issues range from conservation to water scarcity, from urban development to food, hunger, housing, and transportation.
By bringing leaders from different backgrounds into relationship with each other, we will seek to identify and experience the value in partnering across boundaries of difference, discover who we have excluded from our respective tables, and redefine our work in a way that more wholly represents our collective interests.

Join us at Morrow Mountain State Park at 1:00pm, where park staff have graciously agreed to host us as we canoe across Lake Tillery up the Uwharrie River to our newly acquired Capel Property, then hike to see the unique waterfall on Dutchman's Creek and spectacular views of the Uwharrie Mountains. We expect this event to fill up fast, so RSVP soon (crystal@landtrustcnc.org or 336-633-0143), to reserve your spot! If you have your own canoe or kayak, no need to RSVP.
Time to start thinking about warmer weather—and a fun day at the Bullhole! LandTrust staff will lead a creepy crawly walk here, looking for salamanders, turtles and snakes—oh my! This event promises to be fun for kids of all ages!
Mark your calendars and save the date for our annual meeting at Dunn's Mountain Park. Join us for dinner and a sunset hike. Annual meeting is a fun time to get together and learn more about the conservation projects you have made possible.
