All told, together in 2020 we conserved 954 acres of our Thomas Nelson precious peninsula.

Board Chair 3 A s the year came to a close, it was pretty incredible to look back over 2020 and realize that with your help and the dedication of some wonderful landowners, we closed 13 projects, totaling over 954 acres. Some highlights: An unprecedented number of family farms were protected (five) totaling 500 acres—forever available to generations of farmers to come. In addition, we added 350 beautiful acres to the Palmer Woods Forest Reserve. Finally, we created the new natural area, Pat’s Preserve on Lime Lake. Even more amazing, we did it all in a pandemic. Your support makes all good things possible! Here’s a run- down of what we accomplished, listed by date. We have a tradition of ringing a cowbell in the office on the days projects close. This year we had to do that virtually. Land Protection Project Roundup You can read the longer stories about all of these projects on our website.

Walter Jedena Protects 81 Acres of Farmland on French Road Project Completed 1/30/2020 Just before our office was closed due to Covid-19, we completed a project that had long been in the works, protecting land known locally as the old Fleese farm with a conservation easement. For years, Walter Jedena had long admired the property on the corner of French and Hohnke Roads. He had driven by it many times, always intrigued by the “bucolic” land: its expansive fields, beautiful barn, the house with long johns waving in the breeze off the front porch, the weathered siding. When the property was listed for sale, he quickly made an offer. Walter is not a farmer; in fact he has made his living as an investor and developer. But with each and every project he has taken on, says Walter, “the highest and best use of each property is always at the forefront of my thinking. I wish for the land to be used to its greatest potential. The Fleese farm has good fertile land. You could put houses on it and make a few bucks. But the value of the farmland is that it is there in perpetuity.” The Jedena property contains prime, unique and locally important agricultural soils, and six acres of non-forested wetlands. This land is private and not open to the public.

6 Palmer Woods Forest Reserve Adds 350 Acres Project Completed (3 Parcels) 8/31/20; 10/1/20 and 12/18/20 In 2020, the Conservancy reached the ambitious goal of raising $3.5 million for a 350-acre addition to Palmer Woods. This stunningly beautiful land will expand the Palmer Woods’ trail system to a projected 40 miles of hiking, cross-country skiing, and mountain biking trails for all to enjoy. It also protects a thriving wildlife corridor and expands Palmer Woods’ border with the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore to five miles. Creating such a large swath of protected land helps to ensure that groundwater-fed Glen Lake and Good Harbor Bay remain healthy, and allows the northern hardwood forest to continue to mitigate climate change through carbon sequestration. “We are humbled by the outpouring of community support and love for Palmer Woods,” says Executive Director Tom Nelson. “I’d like to give special thanks for the early and generous support of the Edmund F. & Virginia B. Ball Foundation and the matching challenges from the Carls Foundation and Ron & Marvel Jones.” Stay tuned for updates on trail development and eventual public access to the new addition. We look forward to sharing this beautiful land with you. Photo bottom right by Leelanau Conservancy Staff

7 2020: The Year of the Trail

The verdict is in: the pandemic drew people outside in 2020. And Leelanau Conservancy’s natural areas were no exception. This year, a record number of visitors enjoyed the Conservancy’s 28 natural areas and preserves. (102,294 people hiked our trails in 2020, as compared to 57,383 in 2019!) There were nearly three times the amount of visitors to Clay Cliffs, the Conservancy’s most popular natural area, in 2020 compared to 2019. And visitors to Houdek Dunes Natural Area nearly doubled. So did the number of bikers riding at Palmer Woods. In fact, visitor numbers were higher at all of the 12 locations where we have placed trail counters, small devices that record movement. All year, we kept hearing from you about how essential being in nature was for your physical and mental health during the pandemic. “Peace.” “Just what I needed.” “Less stressed, reset and refresh.” “Like natural Valium.” “Socially-distanced therapy.” These are just some of the benefits you shared with us when we asked in a social media survey how our 28 natural areas helped you cope with life in 2020. The outdoors was the one place we could go to escape the confines of quarantine, breathe in the fresh air, and—for a moment—feel normal. Whether you loved riding the flow-style mountain bike trails at Palmer Woods, paddling to the Cedar River Preserve, or taking a quiet walk through the cedars at DeYoung Natural Area, it is only because of generous members like you that these lands are open for all to explore, find adventure, and seek solace.

“The out-of-doors IS ALWAYS OPEN. Being in Leelanau means trails, waterways, bike paths, fresh food, foraging, birding, hunting, fishing, stargazing, and more. Thanks to the Leelanau Conservancy, access to natural areas is easy, and in addition to being open during a pandemic, admission is free. Conservancy properties don’t discriminate and the range of activities is as diverse as the abilities of those who visit. Sometimes, it is meditative and solitary and sometimes, it is a socially-distanced way to socialize. Nature is “Always Open” and an especially compelling reason for #whyleelanau.” -Mary L. Cusick 9 Just off of County Rd. 669 in the beautiful Bohemian Valley is a dirt road named after the Nemeskal family. From this intersection Bohemian Valley’s is one of the most breathtaking views to be found in Leelanau County, especially in the height of fall color. The panorama takes Nemeskal Family Lands in 74 acres owned by three siblings: Mary Ann, Betty and their late brother, Anthony Nemeskal. The siblings’ love for this place and the extraordinary history of their ancestors dating back to Forever Protected the late 1800s has led them to forever preserve their farm with a conservation easement. The Leelanau Conservancy has protected other private lands nearby, including most of the adjacent Olsen farm as well as 105 acres owned by the Dechow family. This growing block of conserved lands is great for wildlife, agricultural practices, battling climate change, and ensuring that the beloved views in this part of the Bohemian Valley will never change. Also worth noting: just over the hill to the west lie the Conservancy’s 110- acre Krumwiede and 1070-acre Palmer Woods Forest Reserves. “We are pleased to have part of our 160-year-old farm become protected and preserved through the Leelanau Conservancy,” says Mary Ann, who worked with the Conservancy on behalf of her siblings. “I think our father would be very happy to know that his childhood home will stay the way it is today.” Mary Ann’s great-grandparents, Thomas and Katrina Nemeskal, immigrated from the Czech Republic around 1860 and were among the first settlers in the area. The deed to their land was reportedly signed by Abraham Lincoln. After they died, the land passed to their son, Anthony Nemeskal, who, like his parents, ran a sawmill here. The family also operated a subsistence farm in order to feed the lumbermen who lived in a white 12-bedroom house on the property. To feed all those lumbermen, Anthony hired a cook named Bessie, a widow with two children. He quickly fell in love with her and they married. Together they had four more children, including Mary Ann’s father, Albion, along with Peter, Helen and Ruth. Mary Ann recalls the stories told by her grandmother Bessie. “The cook stove in the kitchen turned out sourdough hotcakes all day long, with warm batter always at the ready,” says Mary Ann. “They raised hogs for bacon, chickens for eggs, cows for beef and milk.
