Bear Yuba Land Trust

Bear Yuba Land Trust is a non-profit organization based in Grass Valley, California. With a small team of five employees, the organization focuses its efforts on land conservation in the Bear and Yuba River watersheds. Their mission is to preserve the natural beauty and ecological integrity of these vital waterways. Bear Yuba Land Trust works to protect both working and natural lands within the watersheds. Their approach involves land acquisition, conservation easements, and stewardship initiatives. The Trust aims to benefit the broader community by providing opportunities for nature access and education, fostering a connection between people and the environment. A key aspect of Bear Yuba Land Trust's work is community engagement. They actively involve residents in conservation efforts, hosting educational programs, guided hikes, and volunteer opportunities. This participatory approach ensures that the community feels ownership over the land and its protection.
