San Juan Islands Conservation District

The Conservation District is a non-regulatory, government entity established to provide landowners and residents with technical and financial assistance to meet regional natural resource conservation goals. In Washington State, the 45 Conservation Districts are authorized by RCW 89.08. The San Juan Islands Conservation District was founded in 1947 and helps landowners conserve natural resources by providing free consultation services, project “cost share” funding and detailed technical assistance. As one of Washington State's 45 non-regulatory Conservation Districts, we help residents throughout the San Juan Islands achieve their goals for land stewardship and productivity. We are committed to conserving and enhancing natural resources in the San Juan Islands for farming, wildlife, public health, forestry, recreation and residential uses. Your Conservation District staff is available to listen and work with you.
