BONUS: Celebrating 20 Years of PORT!
Two decades ago, agriculture faced mounting challenges as industrialization and urbanization threatened the nation’s vast and unique private farmlands, rangelands, and grasslands. In response, six land trusts with ties to their state livestock trade associations formed the Partnership of Rangeland Trusts (PORT) in 2004 to safeguard working lands. Today, PORT has expanded to include nine member organizations working in 12 states. Collectively, these member organizations have helped more than 2,000 families voluntarily conserve more than three million acres of vibrant working lands.
The California Rangeland Trust is a proud member of PORT, and in honor of PORT’s 20th anniversary celebration, we’re excited to bring you a special BONUS episode of Tuned In to the Land. In this episode, CEO & host, Michael Delbar, is joined by Erik Glenn, PORT President and executive director of the Colorado Cattlemen’s Agricultural Land Trust; Jessica Crowder, executive director of the Wyoming Stock Growers Land Trust; and Chad Ellis, executive director of the Texas Agricultural Land Trust. Together, we’ll reflect on PORT’s impact and share insights on the ongoing efforts to keep working lands in working hands.
Tune in every month to learn how you can be involved in preserving the future of the Golden State for generations to come.
