Growing up in Idaho instills a strong sense of self-reliance and resilience, shaped by its rural landscape and distance from major cities. Since 2010, Idaho’s population has grown by approximately 23%, attracting newcomers drawn to its distinctive way of life. However, loving Idaho is not the same as truly understanding what it means to be an Idahoan. Idahoans are defined by their helpfulness, authenticity, resourcefulness, adventurous spirit, and grit. By embodying and sharing these values in our daily lives, members of the Idaho Preservation Society strengthen our community and preserve the essence of what makes Idaho unique.
From Nathen Fox: “The Idaho Preservation Society will help all Idahoans understand and live our Core Values. We’ve curated these values from dozens of native Idahoans. They already exist — we’re just publicizing them, and asking people to live them. Many people move here because of our unique culture; they were unhappy where they were. We need to protect and promote Idaho’s culture for everyone.”
About Idaho Preservation Society:
The Idaho Preservation Society was started by a group of Idahoans who believe we need to be intentional about Idaho’s culture amidst our State’s continuous growth. If we don’t act now, the culture will drift, and we will lose the charm that makes Idaho unique. Join us in preserving Idaho’s core values. Together, we can ensure that our traditions and way of life endure for generations to come.
