SALT SPRING ISLAND CONSERVANCY

about

The Salt Spring Island Conservancy is a registered charity, established in 1995. Our mission is to protect and enhance the natural values of Salt Spring Island and its surrounding waters by acquiring land or covenants, and by educating landholders and the public toward improved land and water stewardship.

We currently own 9 nature reserves, totaling 806 acres, and hold 17 conservation covenants, comprising 798 acres.

We accomplish our objectives through public education, by working with landowners to place conservation covenants on their land and by acquiring land for permanent protection as nature reserves. We also work closely with other conservation groups to acquire and protect land. 

Through our Stewardship Program we work with interested landowners to help them manage the sensitive ecosystems and wildlife habitat on their own land. Our Stewards in Training Program provides hands-on nature education for all Salt Spring students in grades K to 7 every year.
