We protect the lands and waters
of the Blue Mountain region for people, agriculture, and wildlife.

 

We do this through conservation, stewardship, and community engagement across southeast Washington and Eastern Oregon. Our goals: protect and restore farms, ranches, rivers, and wildlife habitat, connect communities to nature, improve access to outdoor recreation through trail maintenance, and expand environmental education offerings for all children and families.
