Wink Lees
Wink Lees is a native of the Mt. Washington Valley whose environmental interests were borne out of early childhood ramblings through forests and fields and along drainages surrounding his home neighborhood of Kearsarge, NH. While attending college, he worked several summers for the US Forest Service in varying capacities in the Saco District of the White Mountain National Forest and later worked on the Little Missouri National Grasslands of the Custer National Forest in North Dakota. Over the past 20 years, Wink's primary emphasis and profession has been centered on a garden and landscape design and installation partnership called Floribunda. During his involvement with landscaping, Wink became increasingly interested in natural landscape design, native plants, and land conservation leading him to complete a Masters Degree in Environmental Studies at Antioch New England.
Wink continues his affiliation with Antioch as an adjunct instructor for various courses in New England flora including native ferns and alpine flora. In addition to his work with RAVEN Interpretive Wildlife Programs, Wink is the Conservation Easement Coordinator with the Upper Saco Valley Land Trust and has been employed with the New Hampshire Chapter of The Nature Conservancy as the Northern Reserves Stewardship Assistant. Wink is also a Plant Conservation Volunteer with the New England Wildflower Society and for several years recently served as a member of the Jackson, NH Conservation Commission.
