In the Eastern U.S., 87% of land is privately owned. Nationally, nearly 70% of the lower 48 is private. This partnership is built to engage the landowners who steward the majority of wild turkey habitat.

Turkeys for Tomorrow is dedicated to reversing wild turkey population declines through applied research, habitat improvement, education, and grassroots engagement. LandTrust helps landowners responsibly share access to their land—creating legal, transparent hunting opportunities while preserving control and stewardship.

Many of the regions facing the most significant turkey population challenges—across the Southeast, Coastal Plain, Mississippi River Valley, and into Texas and Oklahoma—are dominated by private land ownership.

Private landowners already invest significant time and resources into habitat management—often at substantial personal cost. Wildlife does not recognize property boundaries, and conservation outcomes improve when neighboring landowners work toward shared goals.
