The Colorado Cattlemen’s Agricultural Land Trust protects Colorado’s agricultural land, heritage and families for future generations by conserving rural landscapes. Northwest Colorado harbors prime sage grouse country, linking classic sagebrush habitat to rivers, aspen forests, and soaring peaks. Here, ranchers are embracing conservation easements at an unprecedented rate.

Sage Grouse Initiative dollars are infusing critical funds for the Colorado Cattlemen’s Agricultural Land Trust to help ranchers protect their lands from development.
