Big Meadows Ranch Conservation Easement Secured

Over the past five years, Western Land Group has been assisting the Colorado Cattlemen’s Agricultural Land Trust in raising funds for and closing the purchase of conservation easements in the Saguache Creek Corridor on the western edge of the San Luis Valley.   On April 8, 2005, CCALT closed on the purchase of the 905-acre Big Meadows Conservation Easement.  This easement, which is the fourth purchased conservation easement in the Saguache Creek corridor, also happens to be the 100th easement in CCALT’s 10-year history.  The purchase was enabled with funds granted by Great Outdoors Colorado, the Natural Resource Conservation Service’s Farm and Ranchland Protection Program, and the Colorado Division of Wildlife’s San Luis Valley Habitat Partnership Program.  Two subsequent phases of this 2,900 acre easement purchase are anticipated to close in 2006 and 2007.  Please contact Tim at twohlgenant@westernlandgroup.com for more information.
