The method employed was survey with analysis on forms of conservation and farmers’ participation. The results show that Sagara Anakan region serves for various activities, such as fishery, tourism, sport, and transportation. Conservation in the form of reforestation has not been conducted, because it is thought to cause low production of the crops. The subject of conservation is less relevant to the teaching and learning materials on environmental conservation. Fortunately, various forms of conservation have been done by the community. The forms of conservation are different for each part of the watershed, depending on the physical conditions and the possibility for land cultivation. On the other hand, to develop the teaching and learning materials, the local environment should be the resources for student learning. By this way, students will be encouraged to engage in problem-solving pertaining to the environmental conservation.
