OUR CHARTER is to protect and enhance biodiversity and carrying capacity, and to create a means of sharing an appreciation for and a sense of belonging to Nature.

To this end, we have placed a permanent conservation easement on the property through the Mississippi Valley Conservancy, which will protect this unique place in perpetuity.

Our constructed 1.5 acre wetland, beaver pond, mile of the West Fork, 10 acres of restored prairie and extensive native plantings are havens for wildlife of all kinds. 

GREEN NEWS!!! We are 100% solar powered, as of June 2020. Our bank of 48 solar panels produce more electricity than the entire facility uses.
