Congratulations to our friends at the Sonoma Land Trust for conserving 5,630 acres of grasslands and redwood forests along the Sonoma County coast. A story in today’s San Francisco Chronicle describes the deal and the land’s history and environmental importance. The protection of the land north of the Russian River compliments 3,373-acres that TPL protected south of the river in 2005. Together, conservation groups and state agencies have set aside an almost unbroken 30-mile stretch of the Sonoma Coast, from Bodega Head to Fort Ross.
