The Mill Creek Conservancy is dedicated to the continued preservation and stewardship of Mill Creek's watershed, which provides critical habitat for fish and wildlife, including a number of endangered species such as spring-run Chinook Salmon and Central Valley Steelhead, in addition to water supply for nearby communities including Los Molinos.
Mill Creek Conservancy promotes resource protection and compatible land usage through cooperation between landowners, federal and state agencies, and other partners.

The Conservancy strives to study the interlocking dynamics of all aspects of the Mill Creek Watershed, sharing this information with our membership and partners while also using it to initiate ecological stewardship activities. We believe that community education and goodwill are two of the most important keys to the long-term protection of Mill Creek’s natural and cultural values, including the survival of its diverse wildlife.
