Sonoma Land Trust


2008 Annual Report

Dear Friends, In 2008, we elded our customary array of marathons and one spectacular sprint. The main event for the past several years, and for some time to come, is the long-running acquisition of the scenic Jenner Headlands on the coast just north of the Russian River. In 2008, we Mark Jacobsen and Ralph Benson made good headway lining up commitments from our conservation partners for virtually all of the $36 million needed to purchase the property and half of the $4 million needed to restore, manage and open the property over time. State agencies are making major contributions to the purchase price from designated bond funds, but for now, bond sales are on hold. To be continued. Our commitment to protect land forever is carried out by our stewardship team and a legion of active volunteers. This work is often not glamorous, but it is ongoing and necessary. Planning for tidal wetlands restoration at Sears Point, bird monitoring at the Baylands, grassland studies and grazing management at the Estero Americano, botanizing and hydrology studies at Pitkin Marsh, trail construction at Little Black Mountain, fence building at Laufenburg Ranch and historic building maintenance at Glen Oaks Ranch ... This list could go on for pages it is a catalogue of the caring stewardship that your support of the Land Trust makes possible. The sprint was the opportunity to purchase the top of Sonoma Mountain and knit together a mosaic of protected open space with the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District and Jack London State Historic Park. We jumped on it and were able to record a deed within three and a half months of the land coming on the market. The work we do would not be possible without the commitment of our individual, business and foundation supporters acknowledged in this report. We are grateful for their overwhelming generosity. We also want to recognize the long-term commitment of our Legacy League donors who help to ensure the future protection of our beautiful landscapes. We salute our many volunteers, our partner nonprofits and public agencies, and, in particular, three remarkably innovative organizations the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, the California Coastal Conservancy and the California Wildlife Conservation Board. To all, thank you!

y the year 2050, the human population in the Bay Area is expected to double. What will the impact of that increase be on our landscapes? On our wildlife? On our grandchildren? Thus far, the Sonoma Land Trust has protected forever 20,000 acres of environmentally sensitive land and farmland in Sonoma County, and is poised to bring on board another 5,600 acres in 2009 with the magnicent Jenner Headlands along the coast. With disquieting consequences on the horizon due to climate change and habitat loss, large land acquisitions like this one that provide connectivity to other open lands are more essential than ever to protect the future quality of life for all species.
PROTECTING THE JENNER HEADLANDS

After four years of complex negotiations, the Sonoma Land Trust reached a milestone in 2008 with the signing of a contract to purchase the Jenner Headlands. This $40 million deal will ensure the protection of eight watersheds, multiple threatened and endangered species, a large redwood forest and rare coastal prairie, and the publics access to this remarkable landscape. The Jenner Headlands will mark the single largest conservation land acquisition in Sonoma County, and will link to 13,000

acres already preserved along the Sonoma Coast, providing extra protection and movement corridors for the wild animals and plants that make this region their home. With the advent of climate change, properties like the Jenner Headlands, which offer substantial diversity of habitat and varying degrees of elevation, will present species with the best chances to adapt to whatever unpredictable changes are in store over the next several decades. The Land Trust is committed to managing toward a mature, old-growth redwood forest that will benet wildlife and improve the regions ability to sequester carbon. A conservation purchase this large would be impossible without major funding from our chief partners, who include the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, California Coastal Conservancy, California Wildlife Conservation Board, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the U.S. Forest Service, and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. Thanks to the generosity and commitment of these organizations, only $2 million of the needed $40 million remained to be raised in individual donations at the end of 2008. It is anticipated that the Land Trust will close escrow on the Jenner Headlands in 2009.

S E C U R I N G T H E L A S T S I G N AT U R E M O U N TA I N T O P

In contrast to the lengthy negotiations surrounding the Jenner Headlands, the purchase of the 283-acre Sonoma Mountain Ranch was completed in record time three and a half months to be exact. Thats almost unheard of for a conservation land acquisition especially one of such high value but the moment the Land Trust and Open Space District learned that this property at the top of Sonoma Mountain was for sale, staff moved swiftly to meet the landowners demands for a year-end closing. Thanks to donors to our Land Protection Fund, the Land Trust was able to respond with alacrity to this unexpected opportunity by making an immediate $125,000 down payment on the $9,975,000 purchase contract. Working in concert with the Open Space District, which now owns the top of the mountain, and with the nimbleness that our independent, nonprot status affords, together we beat out a competing offer and completed the requisite due diligence investigations without delay. In the Bay Area, all of the signature mountaintops (Mt. Tamalpais, Mt. Diablo, Mt. Hamilton, Mt. St. Helena) were protected for the public long ago, leaving Sonoma Mountains summit the last to be held in private hands. Not anymore. On December 30, with funding from the Open Space District and State Coastal Conservancy, escrow closed on Sonoma Mountain Ranch, creating a connected band of 5,500 protected acres across the top of this picturesque mountain forming the boundary between the Sonoma and Petaluma Valleys. Soon, hikers will join the ranks of the other wide-ranging mammals who meander over the mountaintop.

CONNECTING THE COMMUNITY WITH THE LAND

In 2008, 200 enthusiastic volunteers donned their hiking boots, slathered on sunscreen and got out on the land with our stewardship team to wrestle weeds, plant seedlings, beat back brush, watch birds and monitor changes. All told, the Sonoma Land Trust hosted 171 hikes, environmental education outings, site visits, monitorings and events on the properties we own and on which we hold conservation easements, and volunteers contributed more than 2,100 hours of sweat equity helping the Land Trust care for the lands we hold in trust. Thank you, volunteers!

More and more, Sonoma County is known as a source of the nest of fare: artisan cheeses, organic vegetables, pastured eggs and meats, award-winning wines and ales ... None of this bounty is possible without maintaining our rich agricultural lands and supporting our farmers. In September, the Sonoma Land Trust was proud to participate in the rst Slow Food Nation conference in San Francisco by offering a Slow Dinner and a Slow Hike to attendees from around the world. We were the beneciaries of an exquisite end-ofsummer dinner benet at Oak Hill Farm conducted by Slow Food Sonoma Valley, and of a special autumn evening reception at the deliciously quirky Jimtown store in Alexander

Valley. Staff and volunteers ferried our Land Trust display to farmers markets throughout the county and to the delectable Artisan Cheese Festival in Petaluma. And farmer Ken Orchard of well-known Orchard Farms signed a lease to grow organic vegetables at the Land Trusts Laufenburg Ranch in Knights Valley outside Healdsburg putting this historic farm back into agricultural production after several years of some of the elds lying fallow.

WAT C H I N G O V E R A N D C A R I N G F O R T H E L A N D

When landowners donate a conservation easement to a land trust, they count on the organization upholding the terms of the easement; so when the Sonoma Land Trust deemed activities at Lower Ranch along Highway 37 to be contrary to the conditions of the agricultural easement we hold on the property, we took action. When talks failed, we led suit. Happily, after three years, the lawsuit came to a settlement in 2008 that both SLT and the landowner feel supports the agricultural values of the land. This case was watched all over the country and was supported by the State Coastal Conservancy and the California Council of Land Trusts. Caring for the needs of the 14 highly diverse properties owned by the Land Trust and monitoring 35 conservation easements keeps our stewardship team on the go throughout the seasons. During the summer, SLT began implementing the Sears Point grazing management plan and installed more than three miles of new cross-fencing across Sears Point Ranch to create 11 pastures. These elds will help protect riparian corridors, wildower elds and an area to be enhanced as breeding habitat for the endangered California red-legged frog. Little Black Mountain in the West County saw increased activity in 2008, including road work, a cabin demolition, property clean-up, a new caretaker and research by a graduate student on the cultural resources left by indigenous peoples. At Tolay Creek Ranch, we conducted biological and cultural resource assessments to collect important information about the plants, animals, and historic and prehistoric resources.

A Friends of Glen Oaks Ranch group was formed to integrate the historic Glen Ellen property with the local community, while at North Parcel, skilled volunteers were coordinated to document the abundant bird life utilizing our seasonal wetlands. At Pitkin Marsh, we conducted extensive surveys for the rare and endangered plants in order to target our management, have embarked on a detailed hydrological assessment, and began working with volunteers to control invasive plants that threaten to overtake this unique ecosystem.
LINKING TO THE FUTURE

Between the Sonoma Land Trust and the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, nearly 100,000 acres of the one million acres comprising our county have been preserved and, yet, thousands more still need protection. With your support, you can count on your land trust to continue to work to prevent fragmentation of the aweinspiring Sonoma County landscapes and to foster habitat connectivity. We will strive to engage the public with our special properties and to instill a love of the land among our countys youth. Our work is in the here and now, but it is all about the future. Many thanks to Andrea Mackenzie, former general manager of the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District (2000 2009), for her collaboration, vision and leadership.
