The San Juan Preservation Trust works with our local communities and people like you to permanently conserve and care for special places throughout the San Juan Islands.

We acknowledge that we reside on the ancestral lands and waters of the Coast Salish people, who have called this place home since time immemorial, and we honor the inherent, aboriginal, and treaty rights that have been passed down from generation to generation.

HAPPY SPRING EQUINOX!

Has it really already been two years since the Spring Street International School joined up with SJPT to help plant some trees in the False Bay watershed?

It has, which means that many of these trees are starting to grow up and provide habitat for all kinds of life around the riparian zone.

Lower False Bay Creek on San Juan Island and other associated wetlands were ditched and cleared over 100 years ago for agriculture to maximize area for crops and grazing. Wetlands like this one are crucial to cleaning surface water before it enters marine waters.

Thank you to those involved in the planting of this important ecological zone!

Check it out next time you're in the area!

Have you seen this bird?! Let us know!

Western bluebirds are back in the islands and, if you're a volunteer of the Bluebird Project on San Juan Island, SJPT wants your bluebird sightings!

This spring is an important observation period and collecting accurate data on the bluebirds' return to the islands will go a long way in helping us determine if, how many, and what kind of bluebirds we may try to translocate later on this season.

Please notify Bluebird Project leader Kathleen Lewis (kathleen@sjpt.org, 360-298-1856) if you have any bluebird sightings in the next few weeks.

We hope to hear from you (and the birds do too)!
