Chuck Leavell and his wife inherited 1,000 acres in Georgia; decades later, Charlane had grown to 4,000 acres with 70% still covered in forests

The walls at Charlane tell two very different stories. There are platinum albums, Rolling Stones posters and photographs of some of rock music’s biggest names. But among the musical history are deer mounts, turkey fans, bird dogs and books about forestry and quail.

For Chuck Leavell, the connection is not unusual. The keyboardist who has played with the Rolling Stones and Allman Brothers found another passion far from the stage: managing forests, improving wildlife habitat and giving Georgia quail a place to thrive, as per a report by Chuck Leavell's website.
