Program offerings included field trips, lectures, and workshops with overarching objectives to increase awareness of and inspire action to support the conservation of longleaf pine natural areas, uplift the cultural significance of these areas to indigenous Tribal Nations in the southeastern U.S., and honor the natural, cultural, and historical significance of these remarkable environments. Longleaf pine ecosystems, including savannas, sandhills, and others, extend across the southeastern United States from Virginia to Texas.
