Reviving Native Wildlife

Together we are restoring wildlife
and the habitats we depend upon

Our Mission

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring and protecting native wildlife habitats.

Our hands on approach focuses on reintroducing native trees, berries, vines, shrubs and hazelnuts to rebuild the food web and provide year round nourishment and shelter.

Through education, volunteer work and community support, we have revitalized our regional temperate forest and seen wildlife return.

Current Projects

Native Plant Expansion

Adding serviceberry, salal, Oregon grape and hazelnut to bolster year round forage.

Water and Shelter

Drippers, shallow basins and brush piles to support birds, squirrels and pollinators.

Invasive Removal

Removing ivy and Scotch broom and reestablishing native trees, fruit and nut bearing understory and ground cover.
