Mississippi Valley Conservancy is a nationally accredited, non-profit land trust based in La Crosse, Wisconsin. The Conservancy has permanently conserved more than 25,000 acres of blufflands, prairies, wetlands, and streams in the Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin since its founding in 1997. The Conservancy works with private landowners, local communities, and partner organizations on conservation projects in nine counties along or near the Mississippi River: Buffalo, Trempealeau, Jackson, La Crosse, Monroe, Vernon, Crawford, Richland and Grant Counties. The Conservancy uses voluntary tools such as conservation agreements, land acquisitions, and a landowner registry program to protect lands for their ecology, scenic beauty, outdoor recreation potential, and prime agricultural soils. The conservation staff works hard to restore native natural communities by removing invasive species and conducting prescribed burns. Additionally, the Conservancy provides hands-on learning experiences in the outdoors for thousands of young people and works to foster a conservation ethic.
