About Our Nature Preserves
Legacy Land Conservancy nature preserves are located in southeast Michigan.
Our preserves are permanently protected properties that are open to the public. Unlike parks, which may have restrooms, play structures, and other built-in additions, preserves are rustic—places where plants and animals thrive and people experience and enjoy the outdoors with minimal impact.
Here's a Taste of What You Might Do
- Peek at a rare prairie fen—formed by glaciers and vulnerable in Michigan
- Take a meditative forest walk on a pathway through the pines
- Bring your binoculars and watch birds, butterflies, and other pollinators flit through their native habitats
- Enjoy a family picnic among the wildflowers
