Winnett ACES (Agricultural Community Enhancement & Sustainability) is a non-profit collaborative conservation group that is invested in the deep interconnectedness of rural Montana communities and their reliance on the land, volunteerism, and each other. We hope that this film can both educate the public about the value ranching offers to our grassland conservation as well as inspire other rural communities and invested entities about possibilities that exist to facilitate rural resilience.
In the high desert of southern Arizona and New Mexico, almost a million acres of important habitats and nearly 30 at-risk species are being protected and conserved…by a coalition of ranchers who manage from “The Radical Center”… – The Malpai Borderlands Group
Prairie strips are like “speed bumps” within and/or around corn and soybean fields that slow and absorb stormwater, help keep soil in place, and prevent runoff of fertilizers and agricultural chemicals. Prairie strips (CP43) is a continuous Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) practice under the USDA’s Clean Lakes, Estuaries and Rivers (CLEAR) initiative. This practice reduces soil erosion, protects soil, improves water quality, stores carbon in the ground, and provides wildlife habitat.

Join the Kansas Grazing Lands Coalition (KGLC) as we work to regenerate Kansas grasslands through education, cooperative management, and practical rancher-led solutions. This video highlights our mission, hands-on workshops, prescribed burning events, and the ways we support producers and rural communities across the state. Whether you're a seasoned rancher or new to land management, KGLC connects you with the tools, people, and practices to build healthier, more resilient grazing lands.
For thousands of years, fire has played an integral role in shaping the ecosystems of Oregon and Northern California. Fire has many ecological benefits, but it can also cause great challenges for our human communities. Lomakatsi embraces a balanced, holistic approach to forest health that also enhances the fire resilience of our communities.
Lomakatsi Restoration Project began in 1995. Our mission is to restore ecosystems and the sustainability of communities, cultures and economies.
