Friends of the San Juans was founded in 1979 to support San Juan County’s efforts to manage growth and protect natural environments. Since then, Friends’ activities have expanded to include marine research and habitat restoration; shoreline stewardship and conservation; land use and environmental compliance; and endangered species protection.

It wasn’t until 1979 that San Juan County got a comprehensive growth plan and that was largely due to the Friends of the San Juan’s being there to advocate for the shoreline and the ecosystem. Since then, there have been constant waves of pressure by developers. Friends have risen each time, fighting to protect this fragile and precious place.
