TRGT works to protect intact habitat and promote biodiversity within the Tennessee River Gorge through land protection, habitat restoration, and scientific research. With land use changes being the primary driver of our extinction crisis, conserving areas is a foundational step in maintaining Earth’s biodiversity.

The call of the sandhill crane represents a conservation success story. Through wildlife conservation efforts, sandhill cranes have been brought back from the brink of extinction. Today, Sandhill Cranes can be regularly heard flying over the Tennessee River Gorge.

With the help of New Terra, we reduced all of AGE’s waste to one trash bag!
