Great NatureWisconsin
Protect, restore, and improve the highest quality natural communities in Wisconsin.
Our Vision
Presently, less than 2% of Wisconsin's land and waters is considered of the highest biological quality. Our vision is to have that number increase to 10% by 2100 with an additional 25% managed according to ecological principles. We envision a state where every landowner is aware of their property's natural values and improves upon those values during their tenure.d improves upon
