Southern Oregon Land Conservancy is a small to mid-sized nonprofit based in Ashland, Oregon, dedicated to protecting and enhancing lands in the Rogue River region. Its work aims to connect people with nature and improve the quality of life for residents and visitors alike. The organization traces its origins to 1978, when it formed as the state's first regional nonprofit land trust and began protecting rural lands through conservation easements with landowners to safeguard their natural values in perpetuity. To date, it has helped protect 11,431 acres across the Rogue River region and maintains national accreditation as a regional land trust leader. SOLC operates within the nonprofit land-conservation sector, focusing on collaboration with landowners and communities to conserve wild and working lands. It emphasizes community involvement and a proven conservation record in the Rogue River region, positioning itself as a regional leader. A recent development in June 2023 involved a partnership with the Ashland Food Co-op as its Change for Good partner.
