Up Abandoned Mine Lands Education Forestry Invasive Plants Committee Land Trust

A number of all-volunteer committees are under the oversight of the Sycamore Trails Council.  They conduct activities throughout our nine-county area.

Abandoned Mine Lands
This committee works with private landowners to remediate small problems on land mined before 1977, with no mining company currently responsible for reclaiming the site.
Education  

This committee sponsors projects to educate youth and adults, mainly on natural resource topics.  One of the important courses they sponsor is the Indiana Mater Naturalist course.

Forestry

This committee covers all aspects of forestry, from tree planting to forest management

Invasive Plants
This committee is working on awareness, education, and control/eradication of invasive plant species that are threatening ecosystems.
Land Trust - Ouabache Land Conservancy
This committee is working to educate the public on land protection, especially through the use of conservation easements.  The Council has accepted conservation easements and also helps manage protected areas held by other organizations
