| About us | The non-profit Arc of Appalachia was founded in 1995 as a grassroots organization. Since our inception we have raised over sixteen million dollars for forest conservation. We currently steward twenty preserve regions, operate two visitor centers, and teach forest literacy courses. The Arc works to accomplish forest preservation by buying forested land in key botanical “hotspots” and then slowly expanding those forests in size as funds for land procurement allow, allowing the woodlands to naturally age and diversify. We teach about our forest heritage to inspire a global conservation ethic. We honor, in our work and our teachings, our Native American legacies. |
