Lunch Zoom: Creating a Prairie Habitat

Women are the superhero allies of prairies, as we understand the importance of championing a healthy, diverse ecosystem on our land. Come for a session on all things prairie, from identifying what’s on your land already to next steps in developing a plan to enhance prairie habitat on your land. Connect with conservation experts, meet other inspiring Wisconsin women that share your love for the land and prairies, and learn about NRCS resources to support your conservation goals.

Session will be recorded and link sent to all registrants.

Conservation Summer Camp Lunch Series

Are you a Wisconsin woman landowner, farmer or conservation enthusiast ready to discover new ideas and resources to care for your land? BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! WiWiC will be hosting a second year of our Summer Camp series, an opportunity to join women landowners from across the state who share your passion for stewarding the land and connect with expert advice, resources, and opportunities around the virtual campfire.  

Whatever your background, from beginners to experts, all women are welcome and we want to hear your story.  Feel free to bring your lunch. S’mores optional. Wisconsin Women in Conservation is hosting four sessions from May through August on the last Thursday of the month.

About Wisconsin Women in Conservation
