Your Gift Makes a Difference

Did you know that Conestee Nature Preserve is owned and operated by a small nonprofit organization?
Our dedicated staff teaches the classes, plants the trees, builds the boardwalks, clears the trails, plans the events, and does everything else required to make this special place enjoyable for you. This work is only possible, though, when it is funded by charitable giving. This means that, as much as you need Conestee Nature Preserve, it needs you too! And there are many tax-deductible ways to support Conestee Nature Preserve

Special Projects



Flat Tail Fund

Just like Conestee’s beavers, staff is relentless in maintaining the trails, decks, and boardwalks you enjoy in the Preserve, even when floodwaters rise, trees fall, or other damage occurs. But your help is needed! With your monthly support through Flat Tail Fund, the Trails Team can always be ready “when the dam breaks”!
