We thank the Alliant Energy Foundation for their continued support of Gathering Waters. They also support a lot more great environmental work like conservation, education, improvements for parks and trails, and more.

2024 marks an exciting milestone—Gathering Waters’ 30th anniversary! A lot has changed over the last three decades, but our mission has remained a constant: we help land trusts, landowners, and communities protect the places that make Wisconsin special.

In celebration of what Wisconsin land trusts can accomplish together, we offer these with thanks and best wishes for 2024!
