“Conservation is humanity caring for the future.”
Nancy Newhall

Our Board of Directors is community-based and represent agricultural, urban, business and environmental concerns in the five county region of Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk and Manatee counties. Our board members have more than 100 years of cumulative experience in conserving lands and water resources in the Tampa Bay region.

Board meetings are held on the second Monday of each month and an annual meeting is held in November each year. We welcome Conservancy members or others from the community to participate in meetings.  Please contact us at info@tampabayconservancy.org for location and times.
