The Osoyoos Desert Society is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1991 to conserve and restore the biologically diverse area of the British Columbian Southern interior. This area had not been the focus of previous conservation efforts,[1] even though it contains a large concentration of at-risk species and is one of the four most endangered ecosystems in Canada.
One of the area's main features is Okanagan Desert, a semi-arid region in the southern part of the Okanagon region of British Columbia, notable for having some plant species not found anywhere else in Canada. Another feature is the Osoyoos Lake, which extends into Washington state in the United States.
