Beginning in 2010, you have the opportunity to support the Buckner Homestead and Orchard through membership in the Buckner Homestead Heritage Foundation.

"When I agreed to become president of the Foundation, I did so with a sense of family obligation, a remembrance of special times, and a feeling of responsibility to help ensure that the next generation will be able to share some of the same Stehekin experiences I've had during my lifetime. It is my sincere hope that you too share these goals and are willing to join with other Foundation members to 'promote the care and preservation of the Buckner Homestead, orchard, and community atmosphere in perpetuity.'

The Board of Directors and a few other individuals have positioned the Foundation well to move forward withour work, but cannot succeed alone; your support and involvement are needed. Please join us today with whatever level of membership you choose and help us assure a productive and successful future for the Buckner Homestead."

Herb Sargo, President
