Trails & Conservation

There is no better way to convince someone of the value of conservation than to let them experience nature for themselves. We believe in the responsible merging of recreation and preservation at a number of scales, from local to state.

In this vein, we have partnered with 5 different land managing conservancies to design, construct and maintain trails on their properties for the purpose of allowing the public to engage with landscapes and restoration.

To date, our work includes over 25 miles of trail at Harmon Canyon (Ventura), Rancho Alegre (Santa Ynez), Ventura River Preserve (Ojai), Mariano Ranch (Ventura), Elings Park (Santa Barbara), and Parma Park (Santa Barbara). This work has included volunteer engagement, environmental review and rehabilitation, public education, and the activation of over $1,000,000 in government and private funds.
