Ecotourism could be a new source of green for the area economy. Destination Door County’s Cambria Mueller said the initiative starts at home. 

 


Destination Door County will be teaming with Leave No Trace for marketing and education and hopes to tie it into attractions like the Niagara escarpment and various state parks. That is separate from the efforts to comply with being a Green Tier community, a voluntary program in conjunction with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The committee brought up the need for summer staff dedicated solely to Green Tier initiatives and discussed the potential for internships with high schoolers through the Ahnapee Youth Apprenticeship Program and local college students.
