Hosted By
Kansas Area Watershed (KAW) Council
When we started the Kansas Area Watershed Council in 1982, we envisioned this community growing and lasting over 100 years. We’ve made it to age 30 now, one of the oldest bioregional groups on the continent. We explore, protect and celebrate the prairie and local culture. Our not-for-profit status has allowed us to serve as fiscal sponsors for the Kaw Valley Seeds Project. We’ve been primary organizers in the continental bioregional movement, and we published two decades of a bioregional journal, and Ken Lassman’s Seasons & Cycles and Wild Douglas County. A generation of KAW kids grew up with a close connection to the earth. We invite you to come grow with us for generations to come!
