Abstract:

Before the settlement of the North Carolina's Coastal Plain, the area was covered by a wide expanse of longleaf pine forests, swamps, and pocosins. Today, the longleaf pine covers only a fraction of its once substantial acreage. A group of unlikely partners have developed a conservation plan aimed at restoring this ecosystem in North Carolina.
