Save Our Sponge – our forested wetlands

Save Our Sponge

If you live in SE Louisiana, the forested wetlands at Woodlands Conservancy are your local natural sponge that absorb storm water and block dangerous winds. With flooding on the rise and 80% of our forested wetlands already gone, there has never been a better time to invest in our natural sponge.  

TODAY – be a hero for forested wetlands and join the campaign to Save Our Sponge!

This campaign will help plant native trees which fight climate change and flooding right in New Orleans’ backyard.
