Mount Shasta Bioregional Ecology Center

We work to preserve, protect, and restore the Mount Shasta bioregion- Since 1988! Funding comes from local donors, fundraising events, and foundation grants.

MSBEC works through public education, science-based public policy and advocacy, restoration, watershed monitoring, forest stewardship - and legal challenges when needed. We engage the local community and its leaders to connect with and protect our bioregion. We have persevered for nearly 30 years through the dedicated efforts of numerous volunteers, staff, and board members and the support of the

local community and foundations who believe in our cause. We are rooted in the local community and take action through our own campaigns and by supporting citizens’ groups through fiscal sponsorship. We are unafraid to take on the big battles and we’re in it for the long haul.

So much gratitude for everyone who showed up to help with paper mache, love letters, signs, paper pots, and creating camaraderie around the upcoming annual Earth Day event! We even tried out the temporary tattoos we’ll be using during this Saturday!

Special thanks to for hosting the event and being awesome collaborators!

Look for the large paper mache puppets this Saturday at City Park. We’re going to have everyone help to paint them and then use the puppets in the kids’ parade!
