Rancher-led conservation organization will protect about 27-square kilometres of land in the area
Justin Thompson and Matt Kumlin walk up a hill toward a ridge in the Alberta foothills as a border collie and “cow-dog-in-training” named Newt tags along.
The easement works to prevent future development, particularly housing, that would “deter from the nature of the ranch.” “Our watersheds upstream of the cities have continued to have more and more development – more houses, more roads, more industrial development – and, with those developments, the ability of the landscape to store and filter water has diminished.”
The projects received money from provincial and federal governments, as well as $1 million from the Calgary Foundation for the most recent easements.
