The Three Paces Mitigation Bank is a private conservation and stream restoration project managed by Water & Land Solutions and located in the scenic hills of Van Buren County, Tennessee.

Developed to improve the health of local streams in the Caney Fork River watershed, this project focuses on repairing eroded stream channels, restoring native vegetation, and improving habitat for fish and wildlife.

The land is permanently protected through a conservation easement held by Unique Places to Save, ensuring the ecological benefits last for generations. Streams on the property had been impacted by past land use, including farming and unmanaged runoff. Through science-based restoration, the project brings these waterways back to life.
