Winter at Kankakee Sands


Two-Stage Ditches

The Nature Conservancy has been working on an exciting new venture  - the two-stage ditch design - with local farmers to improve the function of drainage ditches in a way that will help agriculture and the environment.

Upper St. Joseph Project, with the help of Ravenswood Media, has also created a video - To Build a Better Ditch - demonstrating the benefit of the two-stage ditch.

Blue River Videos

The Blue River Project Office have two fantastic short videos on why we are helping to protect the Blue River and the waters and lands of Southwest Indiana. A short PSA is also available for viewing.

Progress of Our New State Headquarters

The construction of the Efroymson Conservation Center is right on track! Follow its progress in pictures through our slideshows. 

Special Offer to our Members!

Famed Hoosier artist William Zimmerman has generously re-produced, and signed, a small number of his print - Brown County Hills, Tanagers in Yellowwood - to be sold in support of the The Nature Conservancy's Brown County Hills Office.
