Speaker: Lynne Sherrod File size: 330k Play Audio Warren Ranch, Elk River Valley, Colorado "My husband's and my philosophy is that none of us ever really own the land - we only hold it in our hands for a very brief time, and what we do with the land is our gift to the next generation. And some day, we'll be held accountable for what happens on this land." - Lynne Sherrod
Lynne has been deeply involved in building a regional coalition of ranchers, conservationists, and other people in the community united by their concern over the rapid pace of subdivision and development of productive agricultural lands. Together they have made common cause to keep ranching families working the land while also conserving stream corridors, wildlife habitat, and majestic scenery. Lynne is now working statewide as executive director of the Colorado Cattlemen's Agricultural Land Trust, the first land trust in the country run by and for ranchers.
