Cache Creek Conservancy and Nature Preserve

The Cache Creek Conservancy is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded in 1996. Our mission is to restore, preserve and protect the Cache Creek watershed; environmental stewardship and education are two of the ways we work to achieve our mission. You may know us best as the Cache Creek Nature Preserve. which is a 130-acre complex of wetlands, oak woodlands, grasslands, and creekside lands open to the public several days of the week.

The site is home to two unique features: the Tending and Gathering Garden (TGG) and the Jan T. Lowrey Memorial Grove. The TGG is a collaborative effort with the local Native American community to demonstrate native plant uses in Patwin culture. The Jan T. Lowrey Memorial Grove showcases California native plants in a manicured setting and contains a small outdoor amphitheater. We also have a Visitor Center open a few days a week.
