2009

Backed by an outpouring of public support, Foothills Conservancy completed the protection of 856 acres along more than four miles of National Wild & Scenic Wilson Creek for a new public game land and world-class trout fishery, a welcome alternative to development plans for more than 200 home sites along this special creek. We protected three farms with agricultural conservation easements, added land to Chimney Rock State Park and protected another mile of Wilson Creek with a conservation easement on private land.
