All Workshops Include

‘Tools of Conservation’ Events

  • Aldo Leopold, the father of modern wildlife management published Game Management in 1933. In it he quotes “…game (wildlife) can be restored by the creative use of the same tools which have heretofore destroyed it- axe, cow, plow, fire, and gun.”  Each workshop will focus on one of the 5 management tools and will provide greater hands-on opportunities. Examples include; operating ranch equipment, wildlife harvest management,  building ranch improvements like rainwater harvester systems, rotational grazing systems, etc.

FROM THE GROUND UP

Making Wild Connections!

From the Ground Up workshops focus on the study of healthy habitat fundamentals that work to support healthy wildlife populations, agricultural practices, and water.

Join us for a ladies-only workshop focused on natural resources education, comradery, and networking at the beautiful Freeman Center just north of San Marcos. The Freeman Center is owned and operated by Texas State University and serves as a “matchless natural laboratory for the study of sustainable land and water management, as well as the study of the urban-wildlife interface.”
