Sanctuary Forest is a land trust whose mission is to preserve the exquisite nature around the Mattole watershed area in northern California. This nonprofit also leads donation-based educational hikes each year through the redwood forests. The topics range from sustainable timber harvest to edible plants, to old growth trees. This agency really connects the local people with the surrounding lands and strives to not only preserve the nature, but the spirit of conservation and sustainability through education and awareness. I am grateful they are here.
