LTLT name change becomes official
The Land Trust for the Little Tennessee started off the new year with a new name, officially launching its new identity as Mainspring Conservation Trust.
The new name reflects the organization’s growing scope of work, which has spread its land conservation work beyond the Little Tennessee River watershed. Mainspring’s footprint includes the watersheds of the Hiawassee and Tuckasegee rivers and even across the state line in Rabun County, Georgia. The organization’s mission has broadened as well, expanding to include water research projects and educational programming in addition to land conservation.It has a new website, too, www.mainspringconserves.org.
