<br />
The Mission of Solano Land Trust is to protect land to ensure a healthy environment, keep ranching and farming families on their properties, and inspire a love of the land.<br />
<br />
The work we do goes beyond conserving land; it’s also about ensuring people’s relationship to the land remains strong. We are committed to building a conservation and stewardship ethic in our community by supporting values based on common ground and engaging the future leaders and land stewards who will come after us to take care of this land.<br />
<br />
Solano Land Trust was founded in 1986 as the Solano County Farmlands and Open Space Foundation as a result of open space advocates, land developers, and a municipal government working together to benefit the whole community. This unusual genesis created the structure for a board of directors that reflects all sides of land-use issues united in the mission to preserve the agricultural legacy and natural landscapes of Solano County and enhance people’s relationship to the land.<br />
<br />
With your support, Solano Land Trust has permanently protected over 22,000 acres of natural areas and agricultural lands.<br />
<br />
Our Properties - Jepson Prairie Preserve, King-Swett Ranches, Lynch Canyon, Rush Ranch, and Rockville Trails - represent the rich and varied landscape that makes Solano County unique. From rare vernal pools to tidal marsh wetlands to rolling oak woodlands, our properties serve an important role research, education, habitat restoration, and recreation in the local community, the Greater Bay Area and all of California.<br />
<br />
Working in close partnership with landowners, local, state and federal agencies, cattle and sheep grazers, nonprofits, our dedicated volunteers, and supporters like you, we will continue to protect and preserve Solano County’s farmland, ranchland, and open space well into the future. We are proud to steward the ecological and cultural values for you and future generations. We have the honor and privilege of being your land trust, of providing public access to some of the most beautiful natural parks in Solano County.Solano Land Trusthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01021707975633562730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331308846079443473.post-74726187260364265102019-11-23T10:00:00.000-08:002019-11-26T08:14:30.398-08:00Nature Hike at Lynch Canyon 12/28/19<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>December 28 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm</b></div>
<br />
This hike will take visitors westward along Middle Valley Trail leading to Prarie Ridge. Expect about a 5-mile hike at a moderate, but even pace over uneven ground. Muddy spots will have cattle prints. There are steep climbs over several hills with the longest at Prarie Ridge. It’s worth it to see the view of the northern San Francisco Bay and Vallejo.<br />
<br />
The hike leaves promptly at 9:15 from the parking lot; expect to be back by noon.<br />
<br />
Docent guides will be discussing plant communities, landforms, and birds at Lynch Canyon pointing out highlights as we go. Bring boots, appropriate clothing, water, and a snack. Call for more information.<br />

Ken and Cherie Schroeder have made a big decision. They recently worked with Solano Land Trust to protect a piece of their family's historic farm. The 77-acre working farm can be seen from Interstate 80 and is a visible reminder of Solano County's rich agricultural past, present, and now, future.<br />
<br />
Over the years, much of the family land has been divvied up and sold. Ken and Cherie have made a different choice — one that is available to them because of you and your support of Solano Land Trust. They are proud to have protected a piece of the family's historic farm forever. <a href="https://solanolandtrust.org/evistas/saving-ground">Read On...</a>Solano Land Trusthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01021707975633562730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331308846079443473.post-2430267443084515592019-11-11T10:30:00.000-08:002019-11-11T10:30:00.742-08:00Gotta Love Rush Ranch!<div style="text-align: center;">

"Leaving the Ranch this morning, just north of Suisun Hill, I saw a red-tailed hawk on the ground. I pulled over to retrieve my camera, and the hawk flew about 20 yards and landed again. By the time I got my camera, he was gone. Then I looked up to see this big beautiful bird, not a hawk but a beautiful bald eagle.<br />

Did you know Solano Land Trust is helping young people make the connection between food and where it comes from?<br />
<br />
This summer, youth from Vacaville Boys and Girls Club came to Rush Ranch to participate in a food-to-fork program organized by one of our agricultural partners, <a href="https://www.rangelandtrust.org/">California Rangeland Trust</a>.<br />
<br />
A national survey by US Farmers and Ranchers Alliance found that 72% of consumers know very little about farming or ranching. That goes for young people, too. The most telling survey about this connection gap comes out of Britain where almost half the kids don’t know that butter comes from cows or eggs from chickens.<br />
<br />
With funding support from Raley’s and AT&T, California Rangeland Trust’s Where Your Food Grows and Grazes program brings young people to a Raley’s supermarket and a working ranch. The Vacaville youth participated this summer with a tour of Raley’s and Rush Ranch, where they learned about land conservation, cattle body language, and marsh ecology.<br />
<br />
“This was an incredibly powerful day that gave these youth a unique and special opportunity to form their own connections to land and to one another,” said Rangeland Trust’s executive director, Nita Vail. The organization coordinates the event and partners with sponsors to pay for transportation and lunch, and thanks to you, we are able to offer lands like Rush Ranch to serve as an outdoor classroom for important programs like this.<br />
<br />
SLT’s conservation program manager, Tracy Ellison, says the young people were most engaged when given a physical task such as looking for barn owls and pellets in the barn; reading cow body language and searching for cow pies in the field; and playing with the marsh simulator.<br />
<br />
San Francisco National Estuarine Research Reserve’s Sarah Ferner recruited her young daughter to help make the marsh simulators. The "glitter calming jars" were filled with colorful glitter, glitter glue, and hot water, and helped show students how sediments settle in a marsh.<br />
<br />
“I was incredibly impressed with how respectful and curious the students were,” says Sarah. “They asked good questions and were always ready to answer questions, too.”<br />
<br />
A visit to Rush Ranch offers a reminder of the connections between conservation, public access, agriculture, and ecology. It’s a great classroom for kids of all ages.<br />

<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>Adding to the Bay Area Ridge Trail</u></b><br />
<br />
Thanks to you, we have broken ground on trail building at <a href="https://solanolandtrust.org/protected-lands/rockville-trails-preserve">Rockville Trails Preserve</a>. The overall vision for the future of the property’s trail system includes a tw0-mile section of the Bay Area Ridge Trail, which will provide inspirational views of Suisun Valley, Mount Diablo, Green Valley, Rockville Hills Regional Park, and Rockville Trails Preserve.<br />
<br />
This two-mile trail will contribute to the <a href="https://ridgetrail.org/">Bay Area Ridge Trail</a>, a planned 550-mile trail that soars on ridges throughout the Bay Area. Thirty years ago, the first segment was dedicated and within six years 200 miles of the Ridge Trail clicked into being. Today there are 375 miles of trail dedicated, and the rest will come in sections to provide great local adventures and longer thru-hikes.<br />
<b><u><br /></u></b>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="266" src="https://solanolandtrust.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/RT-low-mobility-trail_Jasmine-W..jpg" width="400" /></div>
<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>A future thru-trail</u></b><br />
<br />
The Bay Area Ridge Trail at Rockville Trails Preserve will loop back to the parking lot at first. In the future, it will continue northwest to the Vallejo Lakes Watershed and up to Robert Louis Stevenson State Park, and Mount St. Helena, the northernmost tip of the trail. The portion at Rockville Trails Preserve will also eventually loop to Skyline Wilderness Park in Napa and back down to Lynch Canyon.<br />
<br />
Janet McBride, executive director of the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council, says the biggest challenges in finishing the remainder of the planned trail are to get trail access across or adjacent to private property.<br />
<br />
For example. Rockville Trails Park has 4.2 miles of Ridge Trail, and people are going to want to across Rockville Road to hike from Rockville Trails Park to Rockville Trails Preserve. Plans for that are in the works.<br />
<br />
“We couldn’t piece together the trail without partnerships like the one we have with Solano Land Trust,” says Janet. “Everything happens because of partnership.” The Bay Area Ridge Trail Council nonprofit is an advocacy organization dedicated to getting the trail built. It’s the partners and public landowners that plan, build and steward the segments of the Bay Trail, she says.<br />
<br />
With your support, Solano Land Trust has already contributed to the Bay Area Ridge Trail by dedicating trails at Lynch Canyon and King-Swett Ranches. Check out this map to see how you can hike from Martinez to Rockville Trails Preserve, and (soon) beyond.<br />

They’ll share insights about the birds and other wildlife that call this area home, and give you a great workout!

You will meet the docent at the Park and Ride and then carpool to the trailhead from there.<br />

Some feathered visitors come from as far away as the Arctic Circle. This hike will be between 4-6 miles. Meet in the parking lot.<br />
<br />
COST: The guided hike is $10 per person. You can pay online when registering, or bring cash/check, payable to Solano Land Trust.<br />
<br />
*NOTE: There is a separate parking fee of $6 at Lynch Canyon, cash or check, payable to Solano County Parks.<br />
