Reversing Fragmentation & Restoring Native Landscapes

Field Work at the Olsen's

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Olson family came upon a special opportunity to reunite previously fragmented farmland on the Front Range of Colorado. They chose to engage with the Rangeland Living Laboratory (RLL) to support them in their goal of regenerating and restoring an agroecological system on their new property through strategic and adaptive management.

RLL is providing project oversight and consultation to improve both short and long-term management decisions that are supported and validated by scientific and observational learning.

As is the mission, RLL is engaging the collaboration of other local organizations GramaGrass Livestock Company (gramagrasslivestock.com) , the Citizen Science Soil Health project (soilhealthproject.org), and the David Padilla family to help the Olson family meet their land stewardship objectives and ultimate dream of looking out their window at a panorama of thriving native rangeland where the wild and domestic coexist.
