  • Managing Our Preserves

We envision a future for our region in which nature and community thrive because Capitol Land Trust (CLT) and our partners have invested in conservation of and education about our natural places and resources. By creating broader opportunities to learn about and experience our natural environment, we build a stronger and more diverse community that cares about conservation. This also ensures ongoing support for our conservation mission for years to come.

Our partners and community volunteers work with us to host over 500 students a year on lands conserved by Capitol Land Trust. These treasures, which are the traditional lands and waterways of Salish peoples, hold infinite learning and growth opportunities.

We are proud to collaborate with Puget Sound Estuarium, Black Hills Audubon Society, Shelton School District, North Thurston Public Schools, and Pacific Education Institute for our formal K-12 programs. Other youth serving partners include Northwest Youth Corps, Wa-Ya Outdoor School, and the Olympia Mountaineers.

We are actively exploring ways to implement more inclusive and culturally responsive programs to meet the needs of the diverse students we serve. Our Bayshore FieldSTEM® and Conservation Kids programs follow the FieldSTEM framework developed by Pacific Education Institute. FieldSTEM is an integrated model designed to help educators implement equitable environmental and sustainability education.

Learn more about these programs and volunteer with us!
