Jenne Reische

Jenne Reische began working for the District in 2008 as a conservation planner. She helped farmers take care of the land by restoring areas near rivers and streams. Now, she is the Planning Program Manager, leading a team of conservation experts who help local residents protect natural resources.

Jenne has always loved being outside. Growing up in Michigan, she spent a lot of time exploring forests and riding horses. She studied forestry at Michigan State University and later earned a master’s degree in environmental education. Her knowledge of nature, including forests, rivers, and wildlife, has been a great help to the District.

When she’s not working, Jenne lives on a farm in Clackamas County with her horses and chickens. She loves horseback riding and competes in a sport called working equitation.
