"When we see land
as
a
community to
which
we belong,
we may begin
to
use it with love
and
respect."

Conserving the diverse
landscapes and natural areas of the
Coulee Region of western
Wisconsin for future generations.
Mississippi Valley Conservancy is a regional, non-profit land
trust in La Crosse that has
permanently
conserved almost 9,000 acres of blufflands, prairies, wetlands and
streams in the
Coulee Region since
its founding in 1997.
The Conservancy works with private landowners and local
communities on voluntary conservation
projects in seven counties
along the Mississippi River. The counties include Buffalo,
Trempealeau,
La Crosse, Monroe, Vernon, Crawford and
Grant
County.
The Conservancy uses voluntary tools such as conservation
agreements, land purchases,
land donations, cooperative
acquisitions, and a landowner registry program to conserve lands
for
ecological, scenic, and open space values.
MVC works
cooperatively with individuals, businesses, conservation groups,
local units
of government and other state and federal agencies.
