The Playa Lakes Joint Venture is a conservation organization focused on protecting, restoring, and managing water and ecosystems in the Southern High Plains, especially around playa lakes—seasonal wetlands that support wildlife and improve water quality. By bringing together government agencies, landowners, and conservation partners, it works to sustain healthy habitats, ensure water availability, and preserve biodiversity in this unique landscape. Their efforts help maintain the ecological balance crucial for wildlife, agriculture, and water resources in the region.
