Cascadia Bioregion

Bioregion is short for “bio-cultural” region, and at it’s root simply  means “life-place”. 


Seattle is the largest city in the Cascadia Bioregion.


Bioregions are defined through physical and  environmental features, including watershed boundaries, soil, rainfall,  forests, animals and terrain characteristics, as well as the human  cultures living within them. 


At their smallest, a bioregion is a the  smallest unit it takes to be self-reliant, and at it’s largest the full  extent of a regions watersheds from where a raindrop falls, to it’s  ultimate terminus. 


It is the largest sense of scale in which connections  based on physical realities will make sense, and is rooted in the idea  that those who live in an area will have shared concerns and values  based on that area, and that each community must be able to have a voice  in the issues that may impact them, no matter how tangentially.
