The America's Longleaf Restoration Initiative (ALRI) is a collaborative effort of multiple public and private sector partners that actively supports range-wide efforts to restore and conserve longleaf pine ecosystems. The vision of the partners involved in the ALRI is to have functional, viable longleaf pine ecosystems with the full spectrum of ecological, economic and social values inspired through the voluntary involvement of motivated organizations and individuals.
America's Longleaf Restoration Initiative is excited to share a new and improved fact sheet! The new fact sheet highlights the partnership’s achievements through 2022 and provides the latest information about the restoration work that’s being accomplished together.
The America’s Longleaf 2021 Range-wide Accomplishment Report is out highlighting 2.29 million acres of longleaf management activities across the Southeast – the most acreage since America’s Longleaf formed in 2010. Due to the collective endeavors of our outstanding partners, management activities occurred on longleaf stands. Our network's passion for longleaf pine continues to be the driving force of these incredible achievements.
This “blueprint” for the next three years details where priorities should be placed and identifies the associated actions needed at various scales to advance the longer-term goal of restoring eight million acres over a 15 year horizon.
