Conservation Initiatives

The Chelan-Douglas Land Trust is working to make the case that land conservation is a good investment for local communities. We do not need to choose between a healthy economy and healthy landscapes.

As part of this effort we partnered with The Nature Conservancy, The NCW Association of Realtors, Institute for Rural Innovation and Stewardship, Wenatchee Valley Chamber of Commerce, Chelan County Port District, NCW Resource, Conservation, and Development Council, Economic Development District of North Central Washington, and Sustainable Northwest to present a two-day conference on economy, community and environment, held in Wenatchee on October 7-8, 2004.
