Welcome to the internet home of the Berrien County chapter of Pheasants Forever.  Pheasants Forever is a non-profit organization dedicated to the protection and enhancement of pheasant and other wildlife populations in North America through habitat improvement, land management, public awareness, and awareness. If you have a passion for pheasant hunting, and want to make a difference, please contact your local chapter representative or Pheasants Forever Biologist or Pheasants Forever Membership division today!

Bordered on the west by Lake Michigan and located in the southwest corner of Michigan’s lower peninsula, Berrien County’s temperate climate provides growing conditions that allow for exceptional fruit, vegetable and grain production. Our chapter’s goal is to re-introduce the cover and sources of food our rich region allows -  where modern farm practices have to a great extent eliminated the natural cover that once existed.

Although Berrien County was never known as a pheasant haven; through the 70’s, opening day of pheasant season was a regularly observed ritual, and successful seasons were routine.  These memories, combined with occasional sightings of our favorite bird sprinting from apple orchard or vineyard to nearby cover spur our efforts to provide the habitat they deserve.

Pheasants Forever is the only national wildlife conservation organization that leaves all of the fundraising dollars at the local, grassroots level where they were raised. This enables our chapters and volunteers to see the benefits of their efforts in their own backyards. Last year alone, those chapter volunteers completed over 35,000 habitat projects. Similarly, Pheasants Forever has always recognized the impact federal Farm Bill policy has on wildlife habitat.

Consequently, PF has played an active role in Farm Bill policy development and implementation, which includes the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). CRP is this country's single most effective conservation program benefiting soil, water, and wildlife. Pheasants Forever has more than 100,000 members in over 600 local chapters across the United States and Canada. The national headquarters is located in St. Paul, Minnesota, where the organization was founded.
