Meet Ron Dodson
Educator, Conservation Entrepreneur, Nature Advocate
For over five decades, I’ve worked at the intersection of people, nature, and purpose. From launching beautification campaigns in small towns to building national programs that promote environmental stewardship, I’ve always believed that conservation starts with everyday choices—and grows from there.
I’ve founded organizations, built community-based programs, restored habitats, written books, and developed initiatives to connect people to the land and to each other. Along the way, I’ve been an advocate, a teacher, a storyteller, and—more recently—a conservation entrepreneur.
Today, I operate The Conservation Company, which is the umbrella for all the work I do:
-
Writing and publishing articles, stories, and newsletters
-
Creating videos and educational tools for all ages
-
Promoting conservation lifestyles through landscape planning and local food
-
Selling secondhand goods online to reduce waste and support environmental action
I live in upstate New York, but my work has taken me across the country. I believe anyone, anywhere can take action that helps the Earth—and it doesn’t have to be complicated.
“Helping people help the environment” isn’t just a motto—it’s my life’s work.
