ABOUT THE METHOW CONSERVANCY

The Methow Conservancy has inspired people to care for the land of the Methow Valley since 1996. A nonprofit, accredited land trust, the Methow Conservancy has protected more than 10,000 acres of orchards, fields, shrub-steppe uplands, forests, and riparian areas, including more than 32 miles of riverfront and 1300 acres of irrigated farmland in the Methow Valley. We safeguard healthy soils and clean water, we believe agriculture can thrive in the Methow Valley, and we connect people to the land.
