What’s a place you love in the Midwest?

Horicon Marsh (WI) during the fall migration season. Hundreds of thousands of geese, cranes, and ducks pass through this internationally significant wetland, the largest freshwater cattail marsh in the United States.

What drives you to do this work?

Gratitude for the amazing world we occupy and hope that we can leave our Midwest home in better shape than we found it.
