A Breath of Fresh Air

Our most valuable assets are the land we live on, the air we breath, the water we drink. These are our irreplaceable natural ecosystems. They are the lifeblood of our region, supporting vast, interconnected ecosystems that are increasingly fragmented or lost entirely to development and human activity.

To Conserve for Tomorrow, Adopt Today

Protecting natural spaces and natural functions is increasingly vital to our community health.  When you give $25 and adopt an acre, you protect land right here at home in the Rideau Valley. Your symbolic gift will protect more than 1,259 hectares of plants and animals, wetlands, shorelines and forests. These crucial habitats are hard at work reducing our risk of floods, cleaning our water, stopping erosion and storing vast amounts of carbon to keep our communities healthy and resilient in the face of climate change.

Adopt alone, as a family or even at the office. It makes a great birthday or Christmas gift for the person who has everything. Or adopt an acre in memory of a loved one.
