“I participate with Diablo Trust because I love the outdoors, the west and the land. I am excited about big ideas like stitching together fractured ecosystems; and when I saw this group really working collaboratively toward making these ideas a reality I had to see if for myself. And I love Dutch oven biscuits and gravy.”
“I work with Diablo Trust to preserve unfragmented landscapes in Coconino County. To achieve that, ranches need to be economically viable to avoid future sale and subdivision.”
“I serve on the board of Diablo Trust because the collaborative process is the most secure way to protect ranches. The more people get to know and understand what it means to live with the land, the stronger the possibility that folks can make a living off the land.”
“I work with Diablo Trust because it is the only process I’ve been involved in that honestly brings people together, and allows others to really understand ranching.”
“Collaboration has always intrigued me as a means of alleviating natural resource conflicts. Diablo Trust gives me the opportunity to be involved in that process.”
“I work with Diablo Trust because I am committed to the idea of sustainable use of our vast western landscapes. I love the collaborative model of engaging ranchers, government land managers, academics and interested citizens in this vital endeavor.”
“I participate in Diablo Trust to contribute to a diverse community of professionals who work with land resources and collaborate to apply solutions to serious problems challenging the sustainability of land resource values.”
“I work for Diablo Trust because I value healthy rangeland and the collaborative model that is a foundation of the organization’s approach to land stewardship.”
