St Kateri Habitat

The Saint Kateri Conservation Center is a Catholic land trust and online nature center that promotes Catholic faith, integral ecology, and life. We envision a faithful, loving home on Earth for all people and the whole of God’s creation. We were founded in 2000 and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 2012
Saint Kateri Tekakwitha is the patron saint of Native Americans and First Nations Peoples, integral ecology, and the environment. Born in 1656, Saint Kateri is an eyewitness to the land before much of it would later be damaged or destroyed.
The Saint Kateri Habitat Program engages Catholics and others to restore yards, gardens, farms, forests, rivers, and wetlands as healthy habitats for people and wildlife. With a focus on God and Catholic faith, the Habitat Program supports sacred spaces for people to directly engage in the care of God’s creation, at home and where we work. Our Parish Pollinators initiative supports parishes in establishing habitats for bees, butterflies, and other life-supporting pollinators (and people!). Saint Kateri Habitats build faith, provide food, reduce climate change, protect land and water, and restore our relationships with God, people, and nature.
