Bayou Land Conservancy
Overview
Our Mission
Bayou Land Conservancy is a community-sponsored land preservation organization working to permanently protect land, with a focus on the 13 watersheds that feed Lake Houston. We preserve river and bayou corridors, other properties with significant wildlife habitat value and places where family recreation can occur in harmony with nature. Our 'No Child Left Inside' education program connects tomorrow's conservation leaders with nature today..
