The Idea


It’s Our Nature

YOUR PROTECTOR OF SONOMA COUNTY’S MOST VALUABLE NATURAL ASSETS.

Because we believe that preserving local farms and open spaces goes far beyond keeping Sonoma County beautiful. It’s in the air we breathe. The clean water that refreshes us. The local food that nourishes us. The wildlife, and wild places, that offer us so much joy.

It’s not just where we live. It’s who we are.

Mantra

We work for you, bringing together scientists, environmentalists, farmers, economists, urban planners, community activists and educators to protect our most valuable natural assets.
