Promoting Nature Awareness &
Environmental Education

The Guardians work to preserve and enhance natural resources. They help landowners identify natural areas and protect native flora and fauna. Guardians get excited about practices that are good for the environment.

Guardian programs appeal to ecological and environmental issues — and to people. It's easy to join them at a lecture or workshop. Or on a field trip to a forest, prairie, or wetland.

The Guardians present the natural history of northwest Illinois in ways which all members can appreciate. Anyone can become a Guardian. All activities are open to the public.

The Conservation Guardians of Northwest Illinois is a division of Jo Daviess Conservation Foundation, a non-profit, 501-3c charitable and educational organization.
