Good Words
We envision a truly world-class network of preserved land that will enrich our communities forever. In this age of rampant urban sprawl, our mission to preserve these valued natural resource amenities is so urgent and so important, because in its success lies our region's happiness, and because without it, our region will suffer.

This site is inspired by the memory of Richard Shatten, a former board member of EcoCity Cleveland,
who pushed Northeast Ohio to think strategically about regionalism and sustainability.
