The Call for Nominations for the 2023 Land Conservation Leadership Awards is open through Wednesday, March 15, 2023!

Congratulations to Todd Holschbach, the 2022 Land Trust Professional of the Year!

Together, we can accelerate the pace and scale of land conservation, adapt to emerging challenges, and defend against threats to protecting land in perpetuity.

We are so thankful for friends who supported land conservation on Giving Tuesday, the world’s day of giving.

Several carbon market options for land trusts are becoming available, or are expected to be available soon.

This was the 5th annual Land Trust Days with 19 Wisconsin land trusts hosting 34 amazing events!

The Ice Age Trail Alliance’s Advocacy Committee received the 2022 Land Trust Volunteer of the Year Award on October 7, 2022.

Ozaukee Washington Land Trust was looking forward to celebrating the completion of a decade-long effort to protect Cedar Gorge Clay Bluffs. Instead, the project had to endure challenges when a Knowles-Nelson grant was suddenly blocked.

Nature-based events celebrate land trusts and highlight the important work they do to protect Wisconsin’s land, water, and wildlife.

The Town of Dunn received the 2022 Working Lands Preservation Award from Gathering Waters on July 27, 2022 during the Town of Dunn Food Cart Night, hosted by Groundswell Conservancy.

This new initiative will offer legal services to Wisconsin land trusts and deliver continuing legal education opportunities across the state.

At Gathering Waters our summer reading and listening recommendations run the gamut from the inspiring to the practical.
