The Wyoming Stock Growers Land Trust is Wyoming’s first and only locally-based statewide agricultural land conservation organization. Our mission is to conserve Wyoming’s working family ranches and farms and the wide-open spaces, natural habitats, and rural communities they support.
We work directly with Wyoming Ag-producers to facilitate and provide conservation options. We obtain funding for purchased conservation easements by working with private stakeholders and local, state, and federal agencies. We work with these agencies to ensure their programs are acceptable to Wyoming Ag-operators. We visit and steward all of the easements we hold - each and every year. In all, we dedicate over 4,500 hours per year, directly towards these efforts.
The Annual Roundup BBQ is an opportunity for you to help support this work by becoming a sponsor.
Our mission never been more important. There are 26 million acres of private land in Wyoming that produce our food and fiber, sustain local economies, support generations of hard-working families, provide our important wildlife habitats, and nurture a distinctly Western way of life. Experts predict 50-75% of ranches in the West will change hands in the 10-15 years. Conserving a farm or ranch not only helps ensure it will remain in agriculture, it also conserves and perpetuates our western values and way of life.
