River Fields protects, preserves, and enhances the natural and cultural resources, including agricultural and scenic resources, on both sides of the Ohio River between Westport and West Point, Kentucky, for the benefit of the public.
We believe the Ohio River and its natural and cultural wonders belong to everyone. We serve as a trusted and impartial voice for sustainable, thoughtful planning that respects and nurtures our beautiful river and its lands. We use a combination of advocacy, conservation, and education to achieve our mission and vision, including:
Working with local landowners to protect 2,300 acres of forest, meadow, shoreline, and agricultural land
Caring for 65 acres of beautiful and fragile river landscapes, for all to enjoy
Speaking out against harmful developments
Sharing hands-on nature education with a wide audience
We are 95% member supported, so please be part of our work by becoming a member and donating today.
27 beautiful landscapes, more than 2,300 acres, preserved forever.
This is where the future is —in the unique combination of advocacy for the right decisions about land and water usage for the community, and conserving land at the same time.
