California's Central Valley has lost approximately 95 percent of its native wetland habitat over the past 150 years. Today, flooded rice fields managed through programs like Bid4Birds are among the most important remaining substitutes for the wildlife that once depended on those native wetlands.

The California Ricelands Waterbird Foundation exists to enhance the ecological value of California rice fields and help sustain the millions of waterbirds and other wildlife traveling the Pacific Flyway for future generations. It is a mission built on the belief that strong agricultural communities and thriving wildlife habitat are not competing interests — they are deeply connected ones. Please consider supporting us this .

Spring migration is here, and thanks to our partner rice farmers, so is the habitat. So far in Spring 2026, our Bid4Birds program has already created nearly 1,300 acres of shorebird habitat across California ricelands. Shorebirds can lose a significant portion of their body weight during their migration, and these flooded fields are a critical lifeline. Thank you to every farmer making this possible!

Shorebirds once relied on vast Central Valley wetlands.

Today, California rice helps fill that gap.

Research shows 472,794 acres of rice are needed to support breeding shorebirds, with 373,540 acres of flooded fields supporting them during migration.
