We are pleased to announce the protection of 654 acres at McCormick Ranch, just west of St. Helena on the Sonoma-Napa line. This was a partnership between conservation organizations in Napa and Sonoma. The land in Napa – 401 acres – is now owned by the Land Trust.
The land abuts 7,000 acres of previously protected land, including the 4,000-acre Sugarloaf Ridge State Park in Sonoma. Sugarloaf Park extends south along the Sonoma side of the county line to abut the 1,500 acres protected through conservation easements held by the Land Trust with four families: the Gardens, Atwaters, Halls, and Coppolas.
