Interested in Iowa’s enduring landscapes? Join us on Thursday, August 6th, at 6:00PM to learn from Little Sioux Project Director for the Nature Conservancy, Amy Crouch, as she guides a walking tour of Lois Tiffany State Preserve. As this event will be outdoors, attendees are encouraged to dress appropriately for weather.

With over 20 years in conservation, Amy has learned that it is as much about people as it is about land and water. Today, as Little Sioux Project Director for The Nature Conservancy, Amy leads efforts to protect and restore the Little Sioux River Watershed in northwest Iowa—work that blends science, collaboration, and a deep respect for community. Amy’s focus is turning big ideas into tangible outcomes: advancing conservation initiatives, building partnerships that last, and addressing land management challenges with creativity and care. Amy thrives on connecting stakeholders—private landowners, local leaders, and partners—around shared goals for clean water and resilient ecosystems.
