Help conserve the Owen Sowerwine natural area as a conservation easement
We are excited to announce that the Flathead Lakers, in partnership with the Flathead Land Trust, Flathead Audubon, and Montana Audubon will be supporting the proposal to purchase a 400- acre conservation easement on the Owen Sowerwine property along the Flathead & Stillwater Rivers.
The proposed conservation easement would generate income for schools as well as ensure the land's natural values continue to be protected and open to the public for conservation education, bird-watching, fishing, walking and hunting.
The overall project will cost approximately $775,000 and the Flathead Lakers have committed to raising $70,000 to contribute to the project. Any funds raised above and beyond our goal on Giving Tuesday will go directly to the OSNA fund.
This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support our efforts towards the purchase of a permanent conservation easement on the Owen Sowerwine Natural Area. The purchase of a conservation easement is a permanent solution to safeguard habitat for wildlife, maintain public access, and ensure clean water from river to lake - which means lasting quality of life in the Flathead Watershed.
