Since its inception as a restored land preserve, Tryon Farm has benefited greatly from receiving the wise counsel and planning advise of numerous environmental restoration ecologists, including private contractors, consultants and public advisors including the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), the Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) of LaPorte County, U.S. Fish & Wildlife, and the USDA’s Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS).
