Shenandoah Valley Conservation Collaborative
The Alliance leads Shenandoah Valley Conservation Collaborative to accelerate land and water conservation in our region.
The Collaborative brings together land trusts, watershed groups, regional nonprofits, and agency partners working toward shared goals in water quality, agricultural vitality and protected rural landscapes.
We all have a shared interest in conserving key land and water resources, and we are partnering to identify priorities in our region, including:
- Important agricultural soils
- Civil War battlefield lands
- Priority rivers and streams
Together, we are working with interested landowners and communities, and we are committed to bring the resources and expertise needed to secure these important protections.
