Your backyard is bigger than you think. From the park down the street, through forests and fields, and even past the water's edge, the American landscape connects us all. What happens 50 miles—or 500 miles—away impacts the quality of your air and water, the food you buy, the history or adventures you can experience and more. That's why conservation matters—in every community.
Here are some of the places we work to protect:
 |
Working Lands: Forests, Farms & Ranches America's forests,farms and ranches define our horizon and our history. Coast to coast, generations have looked to these lands for food, jobs, family traditions and more. Today, we help keep "working" lands operating sustainably.
|
|
|
A vibrant community has a healthy environment and a healthy economy. That's why we work toward both goals, by helping communities strategically plan development, train leaders in conservation, apply the latest freshwater research and sustainably use natural resources. |
 |
Animals depend on wild havens for home, food and safe migration. We also rely on wild places for environmental benefits like clean water—and for the sheer joy of exploring our great outdoors. |
|
 |
American history begins outdoors, with the shores that greeted settlers, fields that witnessed battle and many places between—both famous and simply favorite—that mark our culture and community moments. |
We help farmers work more sustainably. With our support, Mr. Moye launched an organic dairy farm.
