The Red Hills/St. Marks Ecoregion

Important Regional Links

Trust For Public Lands - Capital Cascade Greenway Project


Tall Timbers: Through its conservation programs, Tall Timbers strives to protect traditional land uses and rural lifestyles as well as wildlife populations and forest productivity. The Red Hills is model working landscape where consumptive use and sustainable management go hand in hand. This model is and can be replicated on both public and private lands in other regions. Tall Timbers’ challenge is to successfully package and disseminate the information on how and why it works, and to base this information on sound scientific research whenever possible.

Red Hills Conservation Program: At Tall Timbers, the success of the Red Hills Conservation Program (RHCP) is tangible. Now in its tenth year, the RHCP and Consortium partners have protected nearly 62,500 acres through conservation easements. These undeveloped lands from Tallahassee to Thomasville replenish the Floridan Aquifer – the drinking water supply for residents in Florida, Georgia and Alabama.
