In the heart of Bradford County lies NPC’s 120-acre Laning Creek conservation easement. This land, rich in family history, has been in the owner's family for generations. The owner's grandfather farmed the property for many years, and the owner himself spent summers helping with the work as a child. Today, the fields still support hay production, and the undeveloped forests continue to provide habitat for wildlife and a peaceful retreat for family gatherings.
Aptly named after the creek that meanders through it, this conservation easement conserves not only Laning Creek and its unnamed tributary but also a forested wetland on the property, ensuring that these vital water resources, along with the property's agricultural and ecological values, will benefit future generations.
