Wisconsin Wetlands Association
Wisconsin Wetlands Association is a non-profit organization helping people care for wetlands.
On a summer evening nearly 50 years ago, a handful of people gathered on a front lawn in southern Wisconsin with a vision to create a science-based voice for Wisconsin’s wetlands. Out of this initial meeting grew the Wisconsin Wetlands Association. We are a 501(c)(3) private non-profit organization, recognized across the state and the globe for our commitment to science-based work. We’re collaborative and non-partisan, working with anyone who needs help caring for wetlands. Our membership of over 1,700 is a diverse community of wetland supporters statewide and beyond. We are scientists, landowners, hunters, nature enthusiasts, zoning board members, farmers, paddlers, restoration specialists, and more. Through science-based work, we help people and communities protect, care for, and enjoy Wisconsin’s wetlands.
