At Six Rivers Land Conservancy, we believe that nature is essential to the health and vitality of  our communities. As a private, non-profit organization, our mission is to protect and connect  the natural lands and waters that make our region a special place to live.  

We work to conserve the character and quality of our local environment—supporting clean  water, wildlife, and a healthier way of life. Our efforts focus primarily on partnering with public  and private landowners and municipalities through conservation easements, managing nature  preserves, and providing assistance to protect important natural areas.  

But you don’t need hundreds of acres to make a difference. The Six Rivers Nature Near You  Native Plant Garden Certification recognizes native plant enthusiasts who create beautiful,  eco-friendly gardens that support local wildlife and protect our natural resources. Even if you  don’t have acres of land, your garden can still play a vital role in sustaining Michigan’s native  ecosystems- helping protect the natural beauty of our region for generations to come.
