Mar 02, 2022 · Montpelier retains mayor, approves Elks property purchase. MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) - Montpelier voters Tuesday approved a $2 million bond to purchase the Elks Club golf course for affordable housing and a recreation center.

Jun 16, 2017 · Blandford Nature Center and the Land Conservancy of West Michigan collaborated on the purchase of the 121-acre Highlands Golf Club in Grand Rapids in the winter of 2017 with a vision to transform the property into a natural area for community recreation and education. The property was acquired with a loan from The Conservation Fund.
In its first seasons as a natural area, the grass at The Highlands has grown high and wildlife has moved in, including turtles, fox, deer, muskrat and a multitude of birds and insects. The Land Conservancy, with the help of volunteers, has planted a variety of native wildflowers and grasses which have already begun to flourish. With help from U.S.
It is rare for a piece of manicured or developed urban land to return to nature. For over a century, the land had been heavily watered and fertilized. The long-term restoration of this landscape will bring about substantial improvements to water and air quality in the city and will help in the city’s goal to increase forest canopy.
The Highlands is a place where people of all ages can discover nature. Please help promote safe use by following these guidelines when visiting:
