Each year, the Land Legacy Gathering is our opportunity to honor the people who make our work possible – the people without whom some of Wisconsin’s most special places wouldn’t be protected. (Psst…we’re talking about YOU!)
This year was no different. On the first nice day of spring, we partnered with the Driftless Area Land Conservancy and met in Ridgeway to celebrate the great work that this land trust is doing in southwest Wisconsin.
The 6th annual Gathering began with a tour of the impressive grounds at The Malcolm Stack Foundation Headquarters. This property has been permanently protected by the Driftless Area Land Conservancy. Hikers were able to experience the beauty of this property…
As well as the Foundation’s ancient pine forest…
After the hike, attendees gathered back at the Foundation Headquarters to enjoy tasty, local and sustainable food thanks to Enos Farms. Local wine and beer also flowed freely. Thank you to everyone who came out on this wonderful spring day to the 6th annual Gathering to celebrate all of the wonderful conservation work happening in Wisconsin!
A BIG thank you to our sponsors who made the event possible:
