The Locust Fork River Water­shed is an impor­tant con­ser­va­tion focus area for the Fresh­wa­ter Land Trust. The largest undammed river in Alabama, it is a crit­i­cal habi­tat for six species of endan­gered mus­sels and con­tains 74 known fish species, 12 of which are endan­gered or threat­ened. It is also a sig­nif­i­cant drink­ing water source for Birmingham.

The Fresh­wa­ter Land Trust is work­ing to con­tinue efforts to pre­serve sites along the Locust Fork River Watershed. Please stay tuned for more information…
