Oxbow Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and preserving wetlands in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Founded in 1985, Oxbow Inc. works tirelessly to conserve the natural habitat of the Oxbow, a floodplain where the Great Miami River meets the Ohio River. With a focus on wildlife sanctuary, Oxbow Inc. prohibits hunting, trapping, and other activities that may harm the delicate ecosystem, while promoting low-impact activities such as birdwatching, hiking, and photography.
As one of the few remaining wetlands in America, Oxbow Inc. recognizes the importance of preserving these vital ecosystems. With over 55 wetlands already drained and the loss of more than 400,000 acres of wetlands each year, Oxbow Inc. strives to raise awareness about the vanishing wetlands and the need for their protection. Through education grants, clean-up initiatives, and self-guided tours, Oxbow Inc. invites visitors to experience the beauty of the Oxbow and learn about the diverse wildlife that calls it home.
