As our cities and towns expand, with more and more rural properties being claimed for development, there is an increasing need to preserve what is left of our forests, prairies and wetlands.  It is these natural lands that produce the air we breathe, distill toxins from the water we drink, and provide a natural beauty and order that stir our souls and settle our minds.  ACRES exists to collect and protect the last of our natural habitats in northeast Indiana and to teach Hoosiers the value of keeping natural tracts intact.
