Protecting Knowles-Nelson Now

from Okayest Hunter ® · host Okayest Podcast Network

If you hunt, fish, hike, bike, or take your kids to a local park in Wisconsin, there’s a good chance the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program helped make it possible. This week, we sit down with Charles Carlin of Gathering Waters and Team Knowles-Nelson to break down what the program actually does, why it’s wildly popular with voters, and why it’s on the verge of being completely defunded. We talk about matching grants, public access, trout streams, the Ice Age Trail, legislative gridlock, and what happens if funding hits zero on June 30. This is not abstract politics; moreover, it’s about access, habitat, and whether the next generation inherits more opportunity... or less.
