Welcome to LeopoldHeritage.org

 

Dedicated to promoting the legacy of Aldo Leopold — native son, naturalist, teacher and father of the modern conservation movement.

 


Aldo Leopold was born in Burlington, Iowa on Jan. 11, 1887. Here is where his connection to nature was first developed, "tramping" in the ravines and river bottoms of his hometown.
