Our Land, Our Water, Our Future

Protecting the wild heart of the Wenatchee Valley.

For 40 years, we've partnered with landowners and neighbors to conserve the shrub-steppe hills, rivers, and working lands that make Chelan and Douglas counties home.

From the river to the ridge, this land sustains us.

Land trusts are community-led and supported: we protect the places and waters that benefit everyone in Chelan and Douglas counties.

What We Do

Conservation is a partnership with the people who live on this land.

We work directly with private landowners, businesses, and local communities so that the cherished natural areas of the Wenatchee Valley remain healthy and accessible for generations to come.
