2014 GOOD STEWARD AWARD WINNERS

Since 2008, Good Steward Awards have been sponsored by the Stewardship Network of the San Juans in honor of individuals, families, teachers, students and businesses that have demonstrated conservation ethics benefiting our entire island community. Each winner is presented with a “Finee” award—a glazed ceramic salmon crafted by Crow Valley Pottery.

Many nominations for the Good Stewards award program were received from members of the community this year. For full profiles of these inspiring islanders, plus previous years’ award winners, click on the Good Steward Awards link above.
