LEP National Coordinator

Carson Main

Carson was born and raised in rural, eastern South Dakota. While growing up, he was fortunate enough to have lots of time and space to explore the outdoor world. His curiosity about nature and ecological systems continues to influence what he does today. Carson has a degree from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, and has studied abroad in remote parts of Southeast Asia, strengthening his interest in people’s relationship to the land that sustains them. Before joining the Aldo Leopold Foundation, Carson was employed as a cavern naturalist and organic vegetable farmer. He likes to climb, hike, camp, garden, and run. As part of the Leopold Foundation's education team, Carson's work includes advancing Green Fire and spending 50 percent of his time with middle school students doing projects based in environmental education as part of the organization’s partnership with the Wisconsin Green Schools Network. He will serve as the primary contact for the Leopold Education Project.
