Protect
HCC partners with area landowners to protect open space in the Texas Hill Country through land conservation. Although the easements are on private lands, they provide immense public benefit, as they protect our water supply, maintain native wildlife habitats, and mitigate flooding.
Provide
HCC provides access to nature via the Violet Crown Trail and on Nalle Bunny Run Wildlife Preserve. The Violet Crown Trail stretches from Zilker Park to Slaughter Creek, winding in and out of wooded regions and urban centers in Austin and Sunset Valley. Nalle Bunny Run Wildlife Preserve protects vital wildlife habitat on the banks of Lake Austin.
Promote
HCC promotes conservation enthusiasm in our community through educational programming, volunteer opportunities, landowner workshops, outdoor recreation activities, and more!
