Middle Creek

Macon County

Acreage: 35

Year: 2001

In the first conservation easement ever received by Mainspring (then Land Trust for the Little Tennessee) Dick and Gill Heywood conveyed a conservation easement on their 35-acre property in southern Macon County to the land trust. The property contains a half-mile of Middle Creek frontage. The conservation easement they conveyed to Mainspring allows for continued farming of the rich bottomlands, building small farm-related buildings, and harvesting the timber according to an approved forest-management plan. The easement limits any future subdivision of the land.
