Promoting conservation on America’s private lands.

Exciting times ahead

It’s out! Last Friday (September 26), We Can Do Better: Collected Writings on Land, Conservation, and Public Policy by Paul W. Johnson, edited by Curt Meine, became available in print.

There is more information to come, but in the meantime:

  • You can order the book from Ice Cube Press.

  • Join the book launch event in Decorah on Oct. 7, 6:30p.m. at The Landing Market.

  • Attend the Wisconsin Book Festival on Oct. 25.  Curt Meine will discuss the book in a discussion with author Sonja Trom Eayrs (Dodge County, Incorporated), in an information session on “The Fight for Rural America.”

  • Join the book launch event in Des Moines on Oct. 29, 4:00p.m. at The Harkin Institute.

  • Join the book launch event in Ames on Oct. 30, 6:00p.m. at the Ames Public Library.

  • TO BE RESCHEDULED! The Forest History Webinar that was scheduled Sept 18 will not be held. NEW DATE TBD. Curt will discuss Paul’s service as chief of the USDA Natural Resources Service and give insights into the book

We advocate public policy which supports private landowners’ desire to maximize their resources’ value to future generations.
