Land Trust Receives

The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation and Pierce County Conservation District have awarded the Land Trust a $4,000 Green Partnership Fund grant to be used for the Nisqually Community Forest Project. The project calls for the establishment of a 20-30,000 acre community forest in the Upper Mashel River watershed near Eatonville. Community forests are owned by nonprofit organizations and managed for public benefit (i.e. forest practices recreation, habitat, ecosystems services). Read more... |
Rising from the meltwaters of an ancient glacier, the Nisqually River courses 78 miles through Mount Rainier National Park to its delta in the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, on Puget Sound.
The Nisqually Land Trust was established in 1989 to protect wildlife habitat threatened by the consequences of rapid population growth. Today it conserves and restores over 3,400 acres in the Nisqually watershed.
