Education & Outreach

HomeWhat We DoEducation & Outreach

Education & Outreach

The Longleaf Alliance was established in 1995 when interest in the longleaf ecosystem and the tree itself was growing rapidly, but there was no outlet available to those seeking information or those wishing to share their experiences. Since its formation, The Longleaf Alliance has used outreach, education, research, direct involvement and hands-on experience to develop and provide the best available information to landowners, managers, policy makers, educators, and the public. Today we raise awareness, increase engagement, and grow a love for longleaf across the range in all forms of media and educational settings.
