Columbia Land Trust conserves and cares for the Northwest places you love—the places that provide all of us well-being and an unrivaled quality of life.
Here at Columbia Land Trust, what we do is simple: We conserve and care for the heart of the Northwest, the places that make ours an incredible region to live, work, raise a family, and grow old in. Wetlands and oak woodlands. Columbia River tributaries and Columbia River shores. Forests both wild and working. Natural areas in urban strongholds and wide-open spaces that anchor rural communities.
We work with urgency and with purpose. Population forecasts in both Oregon and Washington show a steady increase of people; in both states the majority of the increase is due to net migration—people moving here from elsewhere. That projected growth puts tremendous pressure on our land and water, including wildlife habitat, working forests, and farms.
For us, the message is clear: The time to conserve the Northwest is now.
