People often wonder how private land conservation directly benefits them. The benefits are many. And for many of our land trusts, their work leads to some surprising results — extending the benefits of conservation into communities in previously unimagined ways.

Thank you to those who attended our first-ever virtual Spring Summit in late April. And many thanks to our presenters for taking the time to share and celebrate your work! Your presentations were informative, interesting and inspiring!

We recently wrapped up a series of storytelling workshops on the Front Range and on the Western Slope. What did people love most? The share-outs! Shared stories illustrated that conservation means many things to many people.
