New Publication - Stewardship Begins With People: An Atlas of Places, People, and Handmade Products
March 22, 2007 · Source: National Park Service
The National Park Service Conservation Study Institute has released a new publication entitled Stewardship Begins with People: An Atlas of Places, People, and Handmade Products. The Atlas tells the many stories of friends and neighbors of national parks, national heritage areas, and national historic landmarks who are practicing a stewardship ethic and demonstrating a commitment to sustainability. The publication chronicles people’s work and craftsmanship and how their products add value to the preservation of authentic traditional cultures and significant cultural landscapes in and around national parks. The Atlas was undertaken to both recognize and encourage this often inter generational stewardship and explore new ways national park areas and their neighbors can work together.
