The Land Conservancy of West Michigan is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that works to keep nature nearby and help people protect, enjoy, and care for natural land in West Michigan.

Can't go wrong with a pop of red. Soon, spring ephemerals will be catching our eyes on the forest floor, but for now, it's this fungus that's stealing the show. This one was spotted at Flower Creek Dunes Nature Preserve while staff were out measuring hemlocks for treatment to protect them against the destructive and invasive hemlock woolly adelgid. Learn more about Flower Creek Dunes Nature Preserve at naturenearby.org/explore.

If you think this video of McDuffee Creek is relaxing, wait until you see it in person.

Help protect McDuffee Creek Nature Preserve! Together, we can establish a nature preserve on the shores of two tributaries to the Pere Marquette River, where anyone can come to enjoy the therapeutic benefits of time spent by the water.

The project is made possible with support from the Carls Foundation, the Community Foundation for Muskegon County, Ducks Unlimited, the Fremont Area Community Foundation, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Carls Foundation is matching gifts made to support the establishment of the preserve. Donate today to double your impact! Link in bio.
