Len and Chris, McDowell Sonoran Conservancy Stewards
Len and Chris love history! As stewards with the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy, they volunteer their time to educate people about the incredible human history of the Sonoran Desert. They believe that studying history helps us discover solutions for the problems of today and develop a deeper appreciation of the land.
