About the Habitat Conservation Stamp Program
The Habitat Conservation Stamp program allows Oregonians to purchase a collector stamp to support conservation of Oregon’s native species and habitats as identified in the Oregon Conservation and Nearshore strategies. Revenue will be used for restoration of the native habitats that are home to the state’s fish and wildlife. Habitat Conservation Stamps for 2014 and other promotional materials are on sale now wherever fishing and hunting licenses are sold.
