This nonprofit organization works to conserve native species and habitats through restoration, research, and education programs. Some of its key programs include habitat restoration projects focused on threatened species like Nelson's checkermallow, conservation research like climate change studies and endangered species recovery efforts, ecological education, a native seed network, and an estuary technical group. The overall goal is to protect species such as Taylor's checkerspot butterfly, Fender's blue butterfly, peacock larkspur, Willamette daisy, Kincaid's lupine, and Bradshaw's lomatium.
