Realtree has teamed up with The National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) to expand support for wild turkey conservation, hunting heritage, and the future of the outdoors. The new partnership is designed to bolster the NWTF’s Habitat for the Hatch Initiative.

“This partnership with the NWTF is about more than conservation — it’s about the future of hunting and the outdoors,” Realtree Vice President Tyler Jordan said. “Habitat for the Hatch gives us an opportunity to actively support wild turkey populations, tell important conservation stories, and engage both longtime hunters and new audiences. We’re proud to stand alongside the NWTF to protect habitat, strengthen stewardship, and ensure these traditions carry on for generations to come.”

Realtree will serve as the presenting partner of the NWTF’s Habitat for the Hatch Initiative. The goal of this 10-year effort is to positively impact wild turkey populations by improving nesting and brood-rearing habitat in Southeastern states through the active management of more than 1 million acres by 2033. Realtree and the NWTF will also collaborate on co-branded licensed gear that promotes a conservation message. They will also unite on sharing conservation stories, outreach, and membership growth in an effort to expand engagement in hunting, conservation, and natural resources stewardship. The objective is to introduce new audiences to the outdoors while strengthening support among existing hunters and conservation supporters.

Realtree will further demonstrate its commitment as a Full Strut Sponsor of the 2026 NWTF National Convention and Sport Show, one of the largest gatherings of conservationists and hunters in the country.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Realtree back as a partner with the NWTF,” said Natalia Daniels, NWTF national director of corporate relations and licensing. “Their meaningful support for Habitat for the Hatch and various other programs will strengthen conservation efforts and hunting traditions across the country, while helping introduce new audiences to hunting, conservation and our shared goals.”
