Description

Shirley Heinze Land Trust is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has been protecting natural land in Northwest Indiana since 1981. It manages more than 2,100 acres in Lake , Porter , La Porte , and St. Joseph Counties. Included in the Heinze Trust’s holdings are examples of the entire spectrum of natural communities in this area: tallgrass prairie , high dune, oak savanna , boreal flatwoods, dune-and-swale, woodlands, marshes, swamps , ponds, fens, and riparian habitat. Five Heinze Trust properties are dedicated Indiana State Nature Preserves . Shirley Heinze Land Trust is a well established organization preserving these natural areas for present and future generations to enjoy. Volunteers like you help us keep these preserves healthy and open to the public!
