Welcome! I’m Lisa Duchene, a writer, content creator and conservation communicator.

To me, story is … EVERYTHING. 

Live a great story & be sure to tell yours.

I love discovering and telling great stories about people and the natural world.

My writing life has taken me from the fishing boats working off the Coast of Maine, to covering global marine environmental stories and merchants all over the country.

And now to conservationists working to preserve land among the fields, streams and forests in the Ridge & Valley region of Pennsylvania. 

Scroll down for a selection of my favorite published pieces, a link to my blog, and more about my conservation communications company, Polished Oak Communications. Polished Oak helps clients pinpoint, polish and strategically tell their stories to advance their business or mission.

Tell your story. I can help.
