Texas Staff

Our Texas Story

Through the Farm Bill Biologist Program, introduced in Texas in 2008, our staff works directly with landowners, chapters, and partners to plan, implement, and expand habitat restoration efforts across the state. These efforts have resulted in hundreds of educational workshops, thousands of one-on-one landowner contacts, and hundreds of thousands of acres positively impacted. This reach continues to grow every year. Backed by a dedicated team of 14 staff members, we are proud to feature some of our key habitat projects and community education and outreach events:
