Land Trust for Louisiana is here to make it happen!

It’s time for the Third Annual Tangipahoa Canoe Trip! Join us for a day of relaxing and floating down this classic gulf coast stream with a meandering course, numerous white sand bars, heavily forested banks, modest currents and few (if ANY) signs of development!
