We alert supporters of the need for comments on timber sales, livestock allotments, and other projects. When you comment it really does make a difference on the outcome. Even short comments can help stop or alter a sale. We also send out our biannual work reports and other updates.

We also accept donations of equipment, field gear, office supplies, and other items.

Contact us if you have items you can donate or if you have any questions. Thank you!
