Our Partners

In the Driftless Area of southwest Wisconsin, strong local partnerships with conservation-minded landowners and active communities work to protect the precious natural resources of the area for their own sake – and for the economic, health, aesthetic and other human benefits they provide. We work cooperatively with these partners to achieve a state of harmony between people and land, as sought by the great conservationist and Wisconsin native, Aldo Leopold.

We have forged a strong and broad array of partnerships to address the myriad conservation challenges found in our nine-county service area. Our partners include:
