What impact has the NWTF made in Utah?

The NWTF has been a leading force for wildlife conservation and the preservation of our hunting heritage in Utah. Every chapter banquet directly fuels that mission — funds raised through membership and ticket sales support habitat projects, hunter education, and conservation programs that keep our wild turkey populations thriving for generations to come. Your attendance makes all the difference.

Through strategic habitat management, prescribed fire programs, and land stewardship partnerships, the NWTF has positively impacted 118,120 acres across Utah. These efforts directly improve nesting and brooding habitat for wild turkey populations, while supporting the broader ecosystem health that sustains hunters, wildlife, and future generations.

The NWTF's membership in Utah represents a passionate community of hunters, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts united by a common mission. With 1,608 adult members and 17 JAKES members, each individual plays a vital role in funding habitat projects, advocating for hunting rights, and inspiring the next generation to carry the torch of conservation.
