Since 1980, Great Peninsula Conservancy has protected nearly 11,000 acres through acquisitions, conservation easements, and partnerships. With a supportive and active membership base of over 800 individuals, GPC works closely with conservation and outdoor recreation groups, state and tribal agencies, and local governments to accomplish its mission.
