The Guardian Messenger, our quarterly newsletter, is free to all JDCF and Guardian members each March, June, September, and December.

The Conservation Guardians offer programs that 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, wetland, or prairie.
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.
