Ashland Forest Restoration Stewardship Project partners: Lomakatsi Restoration Project, The Nature Conservancy in Oregon, U.S. Forest Service- Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest and City of Ashland Oregon work on the 10-year community based stewardship project. Our community collaborative forest restoration project reduces the risk of severe wildfire across public and private land in and around the Ashland Watershed. We work to protect old trees, wildlife habitat, homes, trails and our water source by thinning overcrowded forests and conducting controlled burns.
