Cienega Corridor Conservation Council

The mission of the Council is “to protect, steward, and enhance the cultural and natural resources of the Cienega Corridor.” The Cienega Corridor is defined as the area linking Saguaro National Park and Coronado National Forest Rincon Wilderness to Las Cienegas National Conservation Area. It includes most of the Sonoita Valley Acquisition Planning District.
