Founders Cookies: It started at a dining room table

In 1991, the Inland Northwest’s first of its kind land trust was formed thanks to the diligent efforts of eleven passionate and engaged volunteers. Today, more than 22,000 acres, 65+ miles of shoreline and millions of gallons of clean water are protected, thanks to their efforts and years of investment by staff, volunteers, and community supporters.

In this fall’s newsletter, founding member Debra Schultz shares the cookie recipe she used for early meetings at the Conservancy’s formation. Below are two gluten-free recipes she now uses for family & friends with food allergies. Do you think the cookies were “conservation magic”? We think they might have been.
