Webinar: Innovation in Land Conservation and Water

March 9, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Presented in partnership by Water Education Colorado and Keep It Colorado

Learn how land trusts work with water rights in Colorado. Then the webinar will focus on two visionary projects: Colorado Open Lands and partners in the San Luis Valley are reimagining conservation easements and putting them to work to slow groundwater decline and encourage aquifer sustainability. And the Palmer Land Conservancy is protecting irrigated farmland east of Pueblo along the Bessemer Ditch with conservation easements and, thanks to a high-level landscape-scale analysis, Palmer is combatting the effects of buy and dry by keeping water on the area’s most productive ag land.
