Bayou Land Conservancy

We preserve land along streams for flood control, clean water, and wildlife.

We envision a protected network of green spaces that connect people and nature.

Bayou Land Conservancy is a regional land conservation organization that works with willing landowners in the Lake Houston watershed to protect land that benefits the whole community. Your support helps us provide clean water to the 85% of Houstonians that get their drinking water every day from the lands we protect. Plus, these protected stream corridors provide a buffer from floods and connected habitat for wildlife and people to use. Throughout the year we host educational programs for both adults and youth. Come visit our 14-mile Spring Creek Nature Trail that hosts thousands of nature lovers every year.
