The James B. Harrison Foundation
Supporting Charitable Activities, Conservation, and Outdoor Education
in Fort Bend and Wharton Counties
The James B. Harrison Foundation stewards two privately owned properties—Harrison–Long Point and Harrison–Burr—that serve as living classrooms and conservation resources for education, research, and outdoor learning. Together, these properties encompass a diverse range of habitats and provide unique opportunities for conservation, wildlife observation, outdoor education, and stewardship activities.
Access to Foundation properties is available by group reservation for mission-aligned organizations and educational programs. While the Foundation does not offer general public access, seasonal events and programs open to individuals are offered throughout the year. Information on upcoming activities, events, and registration opportunities can be found on our calendar.
