Enter our Soils Photo Contest!
The United Nations has designated 2015 as the International Year of Soils. We recognize soil ethics as a critical component of Leopold’s Land Ethic idea, so our summer issue of The Leopold Outlook (our member magazine) will be dedicated to exploring how we use, abuse, protect, and appreciate our soils.
What is your relationship to the ground beneath your feet? What do you think about when you think of soil? Don’t tell us, show us! Enter your photos in our Summer 2015 Soils photo contest on our Flickr group by May 5, 2015.
