Conservation legend Buzz Long retires after 45 years of service on Leelanau Peninsula lands.
“It’s just my age, and it’s just time. I’m ready to hang it up. I’ve enjoyed it (at the Leelanau Conservation District), and I enjoyed working for NRCS and serving the district for all those years,” Long said.
Another celebratory moment for Long is that he and his wife Karen are celebrating 51 years of marriage this weekend.
