The Nature Conservancy in Idaho has worked for 35 years to protect wildlife habitat, clean water and working farms and ranches in Idaho. Working with our partners and people like you, we've protected more than 350,000 acres across the state - from the expansive forests of the Panhandle to the sagebrush deserts of the Owyhees, from world-class trout streams to large mammal migration routes.

Support our work

Owyhees

Our work in the Owyhees Canyonlands of southwestern Idaho protects working ranches, wildlife habitat and wilderness. Learn more.

North Idaho Forests

Working forests provide space for wildlife, places for recreation and the foundation of the rural economy. Learn more about our work in the Clearwater Basin and Kootenai Valley.
