“Neither Gaylord Nelson nor Warren Knowles every believed that stewardship of Wisconsin’s extraordinary natural wealth was a partisan issue. In fact, the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Fund is a product of a long tradition of bipartisan support for conservation in Wisconsin. Few things could be more important to honoring my dad’s legacy than the continuation of the Stewardship Fund.”
– Tia Nelson, Executive Secretary, Board of Commissioners of Public Lands and daughter of former Governor, Gaylord Nelson
