Recently Awarded Grants for Local Land Conservation!

We are excited to announce that the Shasta Land Trust was awarded four new grants through the State of California’s Sustainable Agricultural Lands Conservation Program! These grants will go toward protecting four new properties in Shasta County, ranging from two family farms in Fall River Mills, one ranch near Shingletown and another property in Redding along Onley Creek. These properties, totaling 2,711 acres, will provide for the conservation of prime agricultural lands, wildlife habitat, open space, and riparian corridors.

From the beautiful Fall River to Onley Creek, the benefits of these conservation efforts will have wide reaching effects. Through these newly protected properties that we expect to wrap up in the next two years, local agricultural production will be secured, the animals that thrive in the water and oak woodlands will have a home forever, and this little slice of heaven in northern California will continue to remain special for generations to come.

This level of land conservation is only made possible because of the steadfast support of our donors and community partners who have supported the mission of the Shasta Land Trust since 1998.

The best is yet to come!
