ORGANIZATION
The California Rangeland Trust is a non-profit organization founded by innovative cattlemen and cattlewomen in 1998, and have helped to permanently conserve over 344,000 acres of privately managed rangeland.
The Rangeland Trust partners with ranching families to preserve the Golden State’s working landscapes, air and water quality, wildlife habitat, and local food supply. We connect landowners to conservation resources, facilitate the process of preserving ranching and open space in California for future generations, and help safeguard agricultural jobs and family businesses that support the economic health of the state. We also serve as a bridge for the ranching and environmental communities to cultivate shared efforts in protecting vital natural resources.
The Rangeland Trust staff is a tight-knit team of skilled professionals who readily support one another as we work collaboratively and collegially toward advancing our mission. We are focused on emerging from being “California’s best kept secret” and building a groundswell of new supporters who are hearing the message that well-managed rangeland is important and in danger.
