During Dave Cable's tenure, @davidsonlands doubled land under conservation to 500 acres, with 500 acres in the pipeline. It mapped open space. And it has made significant progress toward a $1.75 million goal for its Forever Fund, to cover costs of acquiring easements.

Trees are more than bark, branches, and leaves. #ATreeCanBe a vacuum that cleans our air. A tree can be a home that supports biodiversity. And that’s just the beginning. We’re on a mission to plant 500 million trees in the next 5 years.
