The Rio Grande Headwaters Land Trust is Certified!

	RiGHT is excited to announce that we just received our official certification from the State of Colorado! This certification is part of a process Colorado is undertaking to ensure that land trusts in the state are doing quality conservation work that will stand the test of time.

 

- Highlights from 2009 -

2009 was a great year for RiGHT and conservation in the San Luis Valley. We completed five conservation projects (including four on the Rio Grande) permanently conserving nearly 5,000 acres of agricultural land, wildlife habitat, and open space. This was RiGHT's most successful year to date. but we couldn't have done it without the landowners, our partners, funders, donors, and volunteers - a huge thanks to you all!

Since 1999, RiGHT has been working to "Conserve our land, water, and way of life in Colorado's Rio Grande Basin."

RiGHT is the only local land trust serving the entire San Luis Valley. To date, we have completed 20 conservation projects preserving 15,107 acres of working agricultural lands, wildlife habitat, wetlands, and natural beauty. RiGHT has also sponsored and co-sponsored 20 workshops and tours and helped establish the coordinator for the San Luis Valley Wetlands Focus Area Committee.
