The Quivira Coalition builds soil, biodiversity, and resilience on western working landscapes. They foster ecological, economic, and social health through education, innovation, and collaboration.

• -Their Land and Water program helps ranchers develop plans and management strategies for restoring and building resilience on slope wetlands, grasslands, and other working landscapes.
• -Their New Agrarian program helps to ensure that living and working knowledge of these practices, and the landscape itself, is stewarded into the future.
• -Their Education program, including their  annual conference and open source publications, creates a space for their coalition to share ideas and resources, and for the general public to learn about the critical role working lands play in the health of the food systems, communities, and the planet.

At the foundation of all their work is the concept that well managed working rangelands and forests are two of the most effective, efficient, and immediately viable paths to remedy the devastating impacts of climate change.

Community

In two decades of collaborative conservation, Quivira has grown a web of knowledge and a network of human relationships focused on soil, water, and neighbors. Their original tagline—working to achieve harmony between humans and nature—has changed and their methods have evolved, but the essence of their work has not. They continue to cultivate hope, innovation, education, and collaboration as the nexus from which soil is restored and relationships are grown.
