Join the Ripple Effect
Help Restore Washington’s Streams & Rivers
Conservation districts across the state of Washington are partnering with land managers and communities to restore and strengthen the lands and waterways that sustain us. Whether you manage property with a stream, river, or wetland, or live in a community connected to local water resources (which is nearly all of us!), there are ways you can make a difference!
Riparian areas are vegetated zones along streams and rivers that are vital to the health of Washington’s waterways. These areas provide critical habitat for salmon and wildlife, filter pollutants to improve water quality, and stabilize stream banks to prevent erosion. Healthy riparian zones are essential for enhancing wildlife habitat, supporting clean water, and fostering thriving landscapes across the state.
Be a part of the ripple effect by volunteering with your local conservation district! Find your conservation district online today by visiting the Washington State Conservation Commission's website.
