Green Spaces Alliance

CONSERVATION FOR COMMUNITY

At Green Spaces Alliance, we protect land and water for future generations, fight against climate change, save habitats, and provide access to clean water, fresh air, nutritious food, and natural areas.

Our mission is to sustain the natural environment and enhance urban spaces through land conservation, community engagement, and education.

Green Spaces Alliance was formed in 1998 as an urban land trust to serve the citizens of San Antonio and Bexar County. Our work is about people, nature, and connections to the land.

Committed to San Antonio and the surrounding region, we protect undeveloped land and water resources, nurture and support community gardens, and help students and youth engage with nature through creative arts. 

GSA engages and empowers the community by connecting people to one another and to nature.

To date, Green Spaces Alliance has:

• Protected over 67,000 acres of land over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone
• Safeguarded 458 additional acres of private property and 123 acres of donated land
• Fostered over 40 community gardens across San Antonio, and
• Educated over 3,700 students on the importance and beauty of nature with our Picture Your World Youth Photography Program.
