WHAT WE DO
The Sequoia Riverlands Trust (SRT) engages in land protection, stewardship and educational efforts in the Kings, Kaweah, Tule and Kern river watersheds from the southern Sierra foothills to the Tulare Lake Basin. Our efforts include:
• Working with willing landowners on conservation easements and other forms of creative land protection
• Using the best available science to care for and restore the land
• Educating the general community about the value of conserving natural and agricultural resources
• Showcasing on-the-ground conservation
• Participating, as appropriate, in public planning efforts that keep our communities vibrant, thriving and beautiful
SRT serves as a source of land conservation information. We partner with landowners and the community, developing innovative solutions that conserve the natural splendor of the southern Sierra Nevada and San Joaquin Valley. SRT is committed to a flexible, non-confrontational approach to conservation that helps protect the quality of life cherished by residents. We implement a wide range of strategies that suit the needs of landowners and meet our conservation goals. Currently, SRT holds conservation easements on 14 properties, totaling 2,654 protected acres, and we own and manage seven preserves, totaling 4,566 acres.
