"This past weekend I was able to make it to the west side of Michigan to take part in a guided hike at TNC’s Ross Coastal Plain Marsh Preserve. As we weaved our way through wetlands and dune forests, a naturalist helped us to identify edible plants like wintergreen and spicebush. It was an uncharacteristically sunny day for early March, so after the hike I headed to the lakeshore at Van Buren State Park. Carving out time to reconnect with the natural world is a priority that ranks as highly for me as any project or meeting. Since most of the work I do is behind a screen, having the opportunity to get back into nature is critical for me to stay motivated and grounded in our mission. And I have to say, looking at trees, sniffing wintergreen and listening to the waves crash on the shores of Lake Michigan is about the best reminder I can get for why we do what we do. That’s why I make sure to keep visits to our preserves at the top of my list of priorities. I’m grateful to The Nature Conservancy for enabling me to create these experiences; Nature Fridays give me the chance to take the day off and get back into the woods. I’m coming back to work re-invigorated and ready to do my part to help save the planet! #MomentswithManny #JoinTheJourney"

Can you imagine a world without wildlife? We can’t—but it’s disappearing fast. This World Wildlife Day, we’ve stripped the oak leaves from our logo to stand with #NatureNow, in partnership with @Voice4Planet.
"As someone who recently returned from an unforgettable sabbatical to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail on the East Coast of the United States, I'm proud to have made the decision to transition from the for-profit sector to non-profit. This shift in my professional journey has been deeply fulfilling, and with the support of TNC, I've been able to continue pursuing my passions outside of work. If you were to ask me what I missed the most since returning from the trail, to some, this might sound like a bizarre answer, but it might be the water. There is nothing like drinking ice-cold spring water straight from the source (after filtering for bacteria in most cases). Being a part of an organization like TNC, dedicated to preserving vital resources like water, has brought immense meaning to my day-to-day work in the non-profit space. It's been a truly refreshing experience. Adventure awaits – are you ready to take the first step? 🌿 #MomentswithManny #JoinTheJourney"
In continuous celebration of Black History Month, we want to share Nature's Chorus: Notes from TNC staff on finding joy and peace in nature. Representation of diverse voices is the key to hitting different notes in the harmony of nature's chorus.
Happy Valentine's Day from TNC! Typically, the romantic escapades of lizards aren't quite the stuff of fairy tales, but sleepy lizards do find their soulmates. One study found that a pair of these lizards have been together for 27 years. ♥️
