What does the WRC offer?

Stewardship Support

We all live in a watershed, and we all contribute to its health. The Watershed Center is here to help landowners meet their goals while helping protect watershed health and function. See other pages on landowner and stewardship group resources. If you have any questions about watershed restoration, or are looking for information or referrals, don't hesitate to contact the Watershed Center.

Education & Outreach Programs

Check out the variety of free outreach programs based at the WRC and out in the community. For more information about bringing the WRC to you, contact 503-823-2862 or watershed at swni.org
