The first weekend in March is officially designated as Aldo Leopold Weekend and to celebrate it, readings, film screenings and workshops are being held throughout Wisconsin and many other states. One of the six events in Wisconsin Saturday, March 3, 2012 was ?Madison Reads Leopold? held at the UW-Madison Arboretum Visitor Center. Forty-one conservationists read aloud from A Sand County Almanac, as members of the public listened to the writings that formed the late Aldo Leopold?s land ethic.
