Nature’s Good Neighbors

Natural places help sustain our communities, fuel our economy, and contribute to the health and well-being of families in every corner of the nation. Our “Nature’s Good Neighbors” series highlights people who depend on the land as much as the land depends on them. With support from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which provides expertise, assistance, funding and tools to conserve and restore wildlife habitat, these land stewards are working with nature to make a home for people and wildlife. We are thankful for “Nature’s Good Neighbors” and all that they do.
