The 596-acre tract south of Centreville includes native longleaf pine forests and Gully Creek, a Cahaba River tributary.
The Nature Conservancy in Alabama announced Tuesday it has completed a $2 million purchase of 596 acres of sensitive land in Bibb County, including Wheeler Mountain, the county’s highest point., an ecosystem that was once widespread across the lower portion of Alabama, but is now found mostly in small pockets of managed forests.
According to the release, TNC is working with the U.S. Forest Service to add the property to the Talladega National Forest, and will reintroduce prescribed fire management that longleaf forests need to thrive.The Nature Conservancy said the purchase was made possible through a partnership with Resource Management Service, LLC and a three-month fundraising campaign through TNC’s Ireland Opportunity Fund, a revolving loan program.
In addition to the longleaf forests, the tract also include significant portions of Gully Creek, a Cahaba River tributary.
