Providing critical soil and ecosystem service data to support working lands stewardship.
At Working Lands Conservation, we believe every land steward deserves access to the tools that drive sustainable land management and long-term resilience. That’s why we provide high-quality soil and ecosystem service data, paired with interactive feedback and consultations. So stewards can use information about their landscapes to shape ongoing management decisions.
Why We Exist
Too often, the science that supports sustainable land management provides information disconnected from the people who steward landscapes. We’re changing that.
Our lab exists to:
Equip land stewards with clear, science-based data they can use.
Support soil health and land resilience through accessible ecosystem monitoring.
Bridge the gap between science and practice with affordable, field-ready tools and insights.
Information with purpose
We intentionally offer our services to provide the exact information useful for ongoing management decisions. Our high quality data comes with interpretation that directly reflects the interests ranchers and farmers stakeholders share with us during ranch and farm tours and consultations. We work with you to learn your land management goals, discuss tests that give you information about whether you are reaching those goals, and develop a sampling plan that fits your needs and budget. Our model is built on service and meaningful, long-term impact. Every soil sample we analyze and every report we deliver is crafted to support real decisions and strengthen communities.
What We Provide:
Soil health assessments
Carbon pool and stock estimates
Data summaries that are easy to use in grant applications, grazing plans, and conservation programs
Ecosystem service monitoring tailored to working lands
