The Vesper Meadow Restoration Preserve is a demonstration site for biocultural restoration and nature connection. Vesper Meadow is an upland wet meadow surrounded by mixed conifer forest in the southern Cascades. Situated on the high divide of the Cascade-Siskiyou ranges, it serves as headwaters for two major Pacific Northwest Coast watersheds: the Rogue River and Klamath River basins. Recently protected by a private conservation buyer in June 2018, Vesper Meadow is now a rare upland meadow site that prioritizes native food plant cultivation and ecological values. They are managing for imperiled species, the native plant community, biodiversity, and wild foods.
