The following list of contacts includes agencies and organizations whose conservation programs are included in the Minnesota Conservation Funding Guide online tool, plus a few other general resources. The list does not necessarily include all conservation-related programs of these agencies and organizations. (For example, it does not include regulatory programs. Also, the non-regulatory programs included in the list are mostly limited to those that make whose main purpose is to make conservation implementation payments and/or complementary technical assistance available to landowners.) Also, this list is not a comprehensive directory of conservation organizations. For example, it does not include organizations whose primary missions are conservation policy, education or research.
