Topics in development include:

Tourism + Conservation: How safeguarding water quality, shorelines, and habitat directly protects the local economy that depends on visitors coming to enjoy our lakes.

Sustainable Forestry: Continuing to support county and state forest resource plans — like the work happening in Crow Wing County — that balance strong forestry economics with long‑term stewardship of wildlife habitat, water quality, and community well‑being.

Healthy Lakeshores: Expanding programs like Lawns to Legumes to include riparian-focused incentives that help lakefront property owners protect water quality and prevent erosion.

Working Lands + Working Families: Partnering with agricultural leaders to find practical solutions that protect soil health, reduce runoff, and keep our pollinator populations healthy. 

Wild Spaces: Ensuring our trails, wetlands, and public lands remain healthy, accessible, and protected for future generations.
