Interested in helping to create vibrant human and ecological communities in and around the rangelands/grasslands on California's entral coast?

Twice a year, the Central Coast Rangelands Coalition convenes to explore how diverse minds can come together to create real, applied solutions to our rangeland needs.  Ranchers, scientists, conservationists, agencies, farmers, landowners, parks personnel, planners, water companies, and lots more attend each meeting to learn new things from one another.

This Fall 2010 meeting featured presentations on what science can tell managers (and vice versa) and how do livestock effect water quality.  The group also worked together to better refine how the Central Coast Rangeland Coalition can better integrate science and management, setting new directions for this powerful group.  Finally, the group visited with the Renz family and explore their experience with ranching on California's rangelands.
