The Luckiamute Watershed Council (LWC) is a volunteer group of neighbors from diverse perspectives working together to learn about the watershed and doing what they can to improve local water quality and habitat conditions.

Our mission is "to engage and assist landowners and communities in the voluntary protection, restoration and enhancement of the Luckiamute and Ash Creek watersheds." We seek to foster good stewardship of natural resources and to develop an improved understanding of the area’s biological diversity.

Project Spotlight: LSNA Phase V

Thanks to the support of Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) and our funding partners, we are about to start planting 158,000 native trees and shrubs within a 60-acre, formerly leased farm field within Luckiamute State Natural Area (LSNA). These plantings are part of an ongoing, multi-year transformation of this iconic landscape back to floodplain forest, and an expansion of the largest remnant of gallery forest left in the Willamette Valley.
