Our mission is to preserve and restore San Joaquin River lands having ecological,scenic or historic significance, to educate the public on the need for stewardship, to research issues affecting the river, and to promote educational, recreational and agricultural uses consistent with the protection of the river’s resources.

“Our final responsibility is to that of future generations, to take steps today to ensure a lasting and healthy river for tomorrow full of fresh clean water with abundant fish and wildlife, trees and plants, and scenic vistas to enjoy.”

exerpt from the Trust's Credo

We’ve been GREEN for 20 years! Protecting land and preserving the river since 1988.

“Our efforts to preserve the river’s unique landscape and to establish the Parkway would not be possible without your support. When the River Parkway Trust was established in 1988, the concept of a greenbelt along the river was a vision considered by many to be merely a dream. But people like you, who believe that open space and natural land are essential to the environmental health of the Fresno/Madera region, are proving that the vision can be a reality.”

Dave Koehler, Executive Director
