About this organization
Mission
Sand County Foundation's mission is to inspire and enable a growing number of private landowners to ethically manage natural resources in their care so that future generations have clean & abundant water, healthy soil to support agriculture and forestry, plentiful habitat for wildlife and opportunities for outdoor recreation. The greatest opportunity to address our nation's most pressing environmental issues is by unleashing the power of farmers, ranchers, foresters, and other private landowners. That may be surprising, because many citizens don't see farmers and ranchers as part of the solution. But, in fact, they hold the keys to environmental improvement because they manage the majority of land in this nation. Without their leadership, our biggest conservation challenges cannot be met.
About
Leopold Conservation Award -- The Leopold Conservation Award recognizes farmers, ranchers and foresters for achievements in conservation on working land. With prominent partners in many states across the U.S., the foundation presents the annual awards in settings that showcase the landowners' conservation success among their peers.
