The CSS logo of three leaves represents the three pillars of our organization:

Stewardship of the Land -

We protect our watershed, pastures, soil, and forests so we may receive their many blessings.

We do unto downstream as we would have upstream do unto us.

We identify and invest in watershed rural lands to place forest and farmland in the hands of the next generation of stewards.


Stewardship of Others -

We provide safety, resources, support, and encouragement to those around us.

We contribute financial reserves, food to our food bank, or work in our community..

We provide and support education to the future stewards of our various overlapping communities.

Stewardship of Self -

We cultivate our own physical, mental, and spiritual health

We communicate with intention, to understand and uplift.

We treasure our creativity and give ourselves time and place in which to learn and play.
