"Preservation through Education and Stewardship "
Stewards of the Coast and Redwoods (Stewards), promotes education, preservation and restoration of the natural and cultural resources of Russian River area state parks in partnership with the California Department of Parks and Recreation through interpretation and public stewardship. We provide park visitors of all ages with opportunities for personal inspiration, satisfaction, and nurturing of spirit and intellect through their participation in environmental education and stewardship programs.
