Get Involved
Volunteer
Email us at office@chehalislandtrust.org if you’d like to volunteer! We’ll add you to our email list for future events. Feel free to tell us if there’s something in particular you’d like to work on, or any skills you think would be beneficial. It takes as village to conserve a basin! We LOVE and NEED your help!
No experience required! We can teach you anything you might want or need to know.
Donate land.
Lands can be donated in two ways:
We can purchase the land from you (if funding allows).
We can create a conservation easement. This places permanent restrictions on part or all of a parcel, in return for tax reductions.
Learn more about how land trusts conserve land at the Land Trust Alliance website.
Email or call us! We would love to talk about your options.
Steward
We have over 4,000 acres that are walked each year! ‘Adopt’ a parcel near you. Duties are simple! Walk the parcel at least once per year, and fill out a simple observational form letting us know what you see. We’ll take care of the rest.
Join our Board of Directors
Board members for the Chehalis River Basin Land Trust work together to steer the direction of the organization and take action towards achieving our mission.
Board members are expected to attend monthly meetings and take part in supporting the organization in a number of ways.
Directors may have specific roles, such as vice president, secretary, or treasurer. Directors can also participate “at-large” and take on tasks and other roles as they come up organically during our monthly meetings.
Want to attend a board meeting to get to know our team and see what goes on behind the scenes? This is a great first step in deciding if you’d like to join our board of directors. Reach out to office@chehalislandtrust.org
