The LTL Fall Field Trip on Oct. 30 took place during spooky season… so naturally, we showed up with crazy hair and fun costumes! It was wonderful to gather with fellow conservationists at our easement at the Abita Creek Flatwoods Preserve; where we explored the flora and fauna of a rapidly disappearing landscape- the Longleaf pine savanna. We’re incredibly grateful for everyone who came out in support of our mission at Land Trust for Louisiana. Together we can make a difference for our state’s natural legacy!

Rooted in Place Conserving Louisiana’s Native Irises and Their Habitat at Live Oak Farm In Louisiana, irises are everywhere—featured in gardens, celebrated in festivals, and admired for their color and form. Beyond the cultivated varieties lies a deeper story: A story rooted in wetlands, shaped by water, and dependent on land that is rapidly disappearing.
