Wide Open Spaces is hosted by Elizabeth Kessler, Executive Director of the McHenry County Conservation District.
Wide Open Spaces with the McHenry County Conservation District
Spend some time in the field, on the trails, and behind the scenes to hear conversations that inspire an appreciation for our natural world, keep us in touch with nature’s wild side, and encourages a green, healthy and balanced lifestyle. Each month we will highlight connections in conservation through preservation, environmental education, outdoor interests and recreational pursuits! Tune in and get outside to discover what’s happening at the District.
