Celebrating 40 Years of Conservation

This year, the Chelan-Douglas Land Trust (CDLT) is celebrating 40 years of protecting the land and water that make North Central Washington special.

Are you looking for a hands-on way to positively impact our lands?

BADGER MOUNTAIN — On a cold Saturday morning, a group of volunteers gathered around a garage on Badger Mountain with bags strapped to their sides and gardening shears in hand.

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering to protect your local land and water! 

WENATCHEE — Each year, the Chelan-Douglas Land Trust asks volunteers to spend a few hours shoveling and raking the thin dirt strips that zigzag through the Wenatchee foothills. It’s simple but important work that improves trail health, and the time to do it is in the spring when soils are malleable.

Chelan-Douglas Land Trust volunteers made “Horse Lake Preserves” in the kitchen at NCW Technical Skills Center as a fundraiser for the organization. The preserves, made from the dry-land apricots at Horse Lake Reserve, will be available for a donation at the Land Trust Annual Dinner.

Join us - stewardship work parties are fun and rewarding! Whether reestablishing native riparian plants, or preventing knapweed from taking over and displacing the wildflowers, you will be able to see the tangible results of your efforts for years to come.

Community Science Projects are collaborations between scientists and volunteers that expand opportunities for scientific data collection and help answer real-world questions. At the Chelan-Douglas Land Trust (CDLT), volunteers play a vital role in long-term monitoring that informs how we care for local lands and wildlife.
