We are finding out that the Rogue River Preserve is rich in diversity, and we are rich in volunteers who have been helping us find out more about the plants and animals that thrive at the Preserve. Read about the latest discoveries of dragonflies, butterflies and orchids. 

We view this project as a big challenge, but it’s an even bigger opportunity – to conserve a magnificent landscape in the Heart of the Rogue, to enhance its outstanding features, and to allow people to visit the site and work with us to protect its incredible biodiversity.

The Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) awarded Southern Oregon Land Conservancy a grant of $1.4 million to help with the purchase of the Rogue River Preserve. It’s the largest gift to the Heart of the Rogue Campaign

Mark Freeman of the Mail Tribune featured our latest conservation project, the Rogue River Preserve, and our campaign chair, Patrick Duffy, and how he is helping Conserve the Heart of the Rogue.
