Conservation Conversations
Sun, Jan. 18, 2026 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm, Nature at the Confluence, 306 Dickop Street, South Beloit, IL 61080
Come join in for this new monthly series of community-led conservation conversations. Together, we will share knowledge, experience, and perspectives in working to restore and care for the land. Each month will be focused around a different conservation practice topic, selected by community interest.
For this first discussion we will be exploring our relationship to land on a philosophical level and how we can be grounded in our ideals moving into conservation practice. This discussion will be informed by overviews of land stewardship before and after colonization.
Open to all levels of conservationists – from curious beginner to expert, come share your perspectives and learn with the community. This series is intended for conservation volunteers, students, professionals, and anyone who feels a connection to the natural world in any capacity.
Tea and granola bars will be provided, feel free to bring a snack to share! Please RSVP if you plan to attend or would like to receive emails about future conversations.
