Title
Gunnison Ranchland Conservation Legacy - Preserving Ranching and Ranchlands in Gunnison, Colorado
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The Gunnison Ranchland Conservation Legacy (GRCL) was started in 1996 by two individuals with different backgrounds but similar concerns and objectives for protecting agricultural lands in their area: Bill Trampe, an area rancher, and Susan Lohr, the former director of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Together, they began investigating the opportunities and services that a traditional land trust might offer ranch families. In the end, they realized that the best way to protect agriculture was to keep families on the land by raising the funds necessary to purchase conservation easements.
