Through voluntary conservation easements, TALT partners with landowners to protect the farms, ranches, water resources, wildlife habitat, and open spaces that sustain all Texans. With more than 325,000 acres conserved across the state, TALT is helping ensure that the public benefits provided by private working lands continue for generations to come.
