About Us
Lomakatsi is a non-profit organization that develops and implements forest and watershed
restoration initiatives, programs and projects throughout Oregon and Northern California. Our
mission is to restore ecosystems and the sustainability of communities, cultures, and economies.

For over 26 years, Lomakatsi has implemented ecosystem restoration projects across thousands
of acres of forests and miles of streams. We work closely with federal, tribal, state, municipal and
non-profit partners, building innovative, collaborative stewardship initiatives across all-lands.
Lomakatsi is currently managing eight landscape-scale terrestrial and aquatic restoration
agreements with projects in various stages of development, working across multiple states and
watersheds. Our holistic, ecologically-based restoration work enhances wildlife habitat, helps
safeguard ecosystem services, and reduced the risk of wildfire to communities. We serve as a lead
partner and sponsor on several nationally-recognized projects and initiatives.

Lomakatsi also brings added capacity to address socio-economic challenges for rural forest- and
rangeland-based communities, by layering in our education, tribal partnerships, and workforce
training and development programs into initiatives and projects. Through the operation of 10
programs, our staff of restoration practitioners, foresters, ecologists, cultural resource specialists,
workforce trainers and educators work to increase community understanding and involvement in
forest and watershed restoration. Learn more at https://lomakatsi.org/.
