The Trust for Public Land has been a part of the Texas landscape since 1979. Through our work, nearly 37,000 acres of land have been preserved—from the rugged cliffs of Palo Duro Canyon to the last remaining ancient hardwood forests along the Gulf coast; from the rolling limestone hills of central Texas to the heart of the City of Dallas. We've worked hand in hand with communities to preserve and protect the very best of Texas for generations to come.



Our goals in Texas are to:

  • Protect coastal areas and the natural resources, economies, and ways of life they support
  • Preserve and protect the quality of Texas' watersheds and aquifers, rivers, lakes, and bayous
  • Create parks and recreation areas for Texans, young and old
  • Improve health and the quality of life through recreation, sporting, hunting and fishing opportunities
  • Foster an ongoing connection to the land itself
  • Preserve and protect endangered species and migratory bird habitat, as well as historical, cultural, and educational sites.
