Friends of Enchanted Meadow is a CA 501c3 formed in 2002.
Our history of environmental litigation to stop clear cutting and protect endangered wildlife began in 1989
and continued throughout the nineties. This work is protecting forest ecosystems adjacent
to the Albion River in Mendocino County, and has deemed the public's voice mandatory
in the state governed Timber Harvest Plan process.
Without FOEM's protection The Enchanted Meadow wetlands ecosystem would have been destroyed.
FOEM founded, owns and stewards the Enchanted Meadow Wetlands Sanctuary and protected areas
Ravens' Call and the Albert Cattalini Conservancy.
Our current mission is the completion of Elizabeth's Trail and to fund raise for a variety of projects, educational and recreational. Most importantly a legal defense fund is needed to protect our sanctuary areas from adjacent logging by the Mendocino Redwood Company.
The Enchanted Meadow Wetlands Sanctuary, Ravens' Call and the Albert Cattalini Conservancy
are home to Federal and State listed Threatened, Endangered, Sensitive and Species of Special Concern wildlife:
Great Blue Heron, Osprey, California Red Legged Frog, Purple Martin, Northern Spotted Owl,
Olympic Salamander, California Red Tree Vole and Coho Salmon reside in the Enchanted Meadow environs.
