Gathering Waters is pleased to announce the winners of the 2022 Land Conservation Leadership Awards.

Gathering Waters exists to support Wisconsin’s land trust community and our team is available every day to help address challenges unique to land trusts.

As the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent throughout Wisconsin, land trusts feel an urgency to play a bigger part in solutions.

One of the best ways to explore this rebirth is a spring hike. Below, we share a few tips for getting outside this spring!

The Call for Nominations for the 2022 Land Conservation Leadership Awards is open!

We’re so happy to report that we exceeded our goal. Your donations helped raise over $26,000 for land conservation!

Gathering Waters had the honor of presenting five Land Conservation Leadership Awards in 2021.

We want to say a special thank you to the 17 land trusts that scheduled 41 Land Trust Days events across the state!

Be tick aware and tick prepared, and you can enjoy Wisconsin’s great outdoors with confidence!
