Friends of Coal Creek

Mission

Friends of Coal Creek exists to support the beauty, biodiversity and resilience of Coal Creek and its home communities.

Vision

Friends of Coal Creek envisions a different way to live with nature that emphasizes support over consumption and can be accomplished through a collection of small efforts. They are building the Coal Creek Pollinator District, which strategically knits together small islands of habitat on commercial property, marginal lands, and private home gardens to create a network of habitat from the foothills above Golden to the plains in Erie — the creek’s entire run. They believe beauty is a critical piece of the effort, especially when beauty comes with ecosystem services and carbon sequestration. We can change the place we live, play and work 300 square feet at a time.
