Lost Valley Education Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to educate youth and adults in the practical application of sustainable living skills. We achieve this by offering hands-on education in ecological design, restoration forestry, equitable community governance, and regenerative farming, while we steward 87 acres of diverse ecosystems for oak savanna habitat restoration, increased biodiversity, and old growth forest characteristics.

Donate to support our vision to become a bioregional learning center that builds upon our existing education and career development opportunities to regenerate the Cascadia Bioregion. Your donation supports us to enhance existing partnerships with bioregional stewards and educators to offer critical learning opportunities in ecological restoration, fire inclusive land stewardship, local climate adapted food systems and sociocratic governance for community organizing.
