Leopold Week 2023

Leopold Week 2023 Speakers: Robin Wall Kimmerer and Delia Owens

Nurturing Reciprocity Virtual Speaker Series: 2023

Aldo Leopold’s land ethic charges us to imagine: how can we live in community with air, water, soil, and all species? This Leopold Week, modern voices of the conservation movement help us to nurture reciprocity with nature–giving back to an Earth that gives so much to us. Join us from March 3-12th for an inspirational speaker series sure to enhance your connection with nature and the conservation community.
