Southwest Michigan land Conservancy is a local nonprofit conservation organization that works with people in the community to improve habitat, protect water quality, support biodiversity, connect people with nature, and help families conserve the land they love.
Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy is excited to announce that we are working with the Edward Lowe Foundation and other community and conservation partners to conserve LaGrange Valley Wetlands, site of the former Lake LaGrange, an amazing, wild 457-acre wetland property in Cass County, which will become our largest nature preserve to date.
But we need your help.
Going on now, The Carls Foundation has generously offered to match every dollar we raise from individual donors 1:1 up to $125,000 – doubling your impact!
With your help, we can protect this special landscape and help save the rare native species that call it home.
