Protecting and caring for the lands and waters that make our region home.
Together, we safeguard the places you love, ensuring the forests, waterways, and open spaces remain healthy and thriving for generations to come.
Working With Our Community
Building Connections
Inland Northwest Land Conservancy works with our community to identify and protect special places throughout the region. We protect private lands through legal agreements with landowners. We also work to improve lands under our management for habitat, clean water and air, and native plants. In recent years, the Conservancy has partnered with other agencies and community organizations to protect land for public enjoyment. Check out our projects under Where We Work and join us in protecting this beautiful area for years to come!

Priority Areas
Giving a Focus to Create Impact
We’ve already conserved more than 28,000 acres and 129 properties across the Inland Northwest. Now, our goal is to protect 15,000 more acres across eastern Washington and north Idaho.
Using a science-based approach, we’ve pinpointed the places that matter most-landscapes rich in ecological value and facing the biggest threats: Coeur d’Alene River, Mica Peak, Mt. Spokane, Hangman Creek, and the Channeled Scablands.
