OLT has just completed yet another Conservation Easement in the Huzzah Creek watershed of the Meramec River! Another 114 acres in the beautiful Huzzah, known for its natural beauty, floating and agricultural/grazing lands, is now permanently protected.
OLT has worked for over two decades with private landowners who have voluntarily decided to keep their lands free of development, and we now protect over 1,000 acres of land in this watershed alone.
The work was supported by the Missouri Department of Conservation, our landowner partners and a private family fund that supports OLT’s work in the Meramec and beyond. Look for more successes later this year in the Huzzah and across the Ozarks!
OLT and its partners protect and restore properties in the
Huzzah Creek watershed of the Meramec River for conservation,
working lands, recreation and scenic views
