The Role of Land Trusts in Biodiversity Conservation

Opens Nov. 6, 2025

The goals of this exhibition are to develop an awareness of the importance of land trusts and how they work to conserve biodiversity by protecting and connecting habitat on private and public lands in southeastern Idaho for generations to come. The exhibition was created by the Sagebrush Steppe Land Trust, who work with willing landowners in Southeast Idaho to conserve private land. The land trust's mission is to protect, connect, and enhance wildlife habitat, working lands, and community spaces in Southeast Idaho, now and for future generations.
