HERO IMAGE

Suggested: aerial or wide landscape of the Cape Lands or Wild Coast — protected land that exists because of donor and community support. Not a portrait of the organization; a portrait of the outcome.

Thirty years of protecting what matters most on Bowen Island.

The Bowen Island Conservancy is a registered Canadian charity and BC society. Volunteer-led, science-informed, and funded entirely by the community — we protect and steward the ecological lands and waters of Nex̱wlélex̱wm / Bowen Island, for current and future generations.
