Belwin Conservancy

The wellbeing of each and every one of us is tied to the health of our natural world. That’s why we are happier and healthier when we spend time in nature. It’s also why we need everyone to feel passionate about protecting it. At Belwin, we spark that passion every day through conservation, education, and immersive experiences on 1,500 acres in the Saint Croix Valley. Belwin Conservancy permanently protects nearly 1,600 acres in the Valley Creek Watershed. Through partnerships, public access, and innovative programming, we welcome people to celebrate and learn from our protected landscapes. In fostering connection and engagement with the land, Belwin has inspired thousands of people to protect our natural world—one hiker, one student at a time. • Education, arts and culture, and research programs at Belwin inspire new avenues of perception, understanding, engagement, and environmental stewardship. • We balance human use in a way that is compatible with habitat restoration and ongoing care for the land. We are a key contributor to healthy habitat, air, and water in the St. Croix Valley. • Belwin strives to make our spaces, partnerships, and programs inclusive, accessible, and equitable. You have a place in nature.
