The Valdes Island Conservancy is a non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation and protection of existing biological and cultural communities of Valdes Island and its environs.

  • Founded in 2007, our goal is to conserve and protect the existing biological and cultural communities of Valdes Island and its environs.

  • We are now a Registered Charity! Please consider donating. Your contributions help fund all of our projects, and are an integral part of elevating the Conservancy to higher status with regional and provincial governments.

  • “Restoring land without restoring relationship is an empty exercise. It is relationship that will endure and relationship that will sustain the restored land.” ― Robin Wall Kimmerer

Located within the Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia, Valdes Island is on the western edge of the Strait of Georgia between Gabriola Island and Galiano Island. It has an area of 23 square kilometres, and is 1.6 kilometres wide by 16 kilometres in length.
