WALT is committed to helping elevate local voices and stories that demonstrate how grassroots, community-driven land conservation uplifts people and place. Through this storytelling, it is our hope that we can help new people, funders, and decision-makers see themselves in this work and become an active part of a growing movement. To that end, every year we release our Groundswell publication to take stock of what we’ve accomplished and where we’re headed. Happy reading!

Join us on November 13th, from 4-6 pm at Stoup Brewing in Capitol Hill for the official release of Groundswell 2026. RSVP for the event here.
