He has worked closely with local landowners on conservation easements for our land trust.

John is a local lawyer, member of the Unitarian Church, and a friend to many people in Moscow, Pullman, and surrounding communities. He is known for his creative ideas. He and his family often bring diverse people together. John has long been interested in conservation. He has lived in Moscow for almost 20 years in a house that is more than 100 years old. We at the Palouse Land Trust owe him heartfelt thanks for his vision, commitment, sense of humor and persistence, for he has worked tirelessly to create and grow the Palouse Land Trust.
