After the devastating wildfires on Colorado's Western Slope, the Colorado Cattlemen's Agricultural Land Trust sprang into action to raise over $50,000 for ag families in need of support. If you are a landowner in need of assistance, CCALT is taking applications for grants now!

“It wasn’t mandatory, it was voluntary.” In Montana’s Big Hole, rancher Blake Huntley is giving something up so Arctic grayling can thrive. That’s stewardship — and it’s what keeps both land and livelihoods alive. #WhereStewardshipMeetsSupper https://t.co/TrqWU3QZYS

“Each summer, cattle move across miles of changing terrain—from forest to creek—bringing life back to riparian areas and seeing beavers return. This is regenerative ranching in motion." #CareforLand

Our old pal Sid Goodloe, who passed away in 2023, reminded us that ranchers keep more than cattle; they preserve open space, western heritage, and dark skies. For Sid, stewardship was more than a set of practices. It was a core value. #CareforLand  https://t.co/kyV9MjNQp7

At a time when landowners are facing wolves, wildfires, and worsening drought, we need leadership that understands conservation isn’t theoretical—it’s practical, local, and done with partners.
