Every conservation success starts with people working together. From the McKenzie River to Oregon’s coast, collaborative partnerships are helping communities protect drinking water, restore habitat, and build a more resilient future for western Oregon.
Almost all of Oregon’s coastal communities face water insecurity. Since 2020, we’ve been working with a broad coalition of partners to identify solutions to the coast’s drinking water challenges. These efforts are being uplifted across Oregon’s coastal communities, with Land Trusts at the table as transaction specialists who can support communities in acquiring land or protecting it through conservation easements.
