Corporate Sponsorships
Incorporate the American shortgrass prairie into your business
The Southern Plains Land Trust purchases and restores land for prairie wildlife. It’s that simple. So far, we’ve protected more than 60,000 acres in our preserve network, providing urgently needed refuge to a wide variety of native grassland animals and plants. Piece by piece, we are restoring the American Serengeti.
Join our mission! Incorporate this iconic landscape into your business and take your team on a trip to the Wild West.
