In December 2016, a very generous donor gave us 2.4 acres of land along the Santa Fe River. In effect, this generous gift to the SFCT was a huge gift to the community, as we will remove all the development rights from this property to preserve it as open space forever. We will also work with the neighbors to develop a plan for the property. This was a wonderful team effort that involved many people, and it is a great example of how our work can positively impact the community. Santa Fe’s river corridor is an important wildlife habitat and walking its banks can be very peaceful and enjoyable. The SFCT works to preserve these important landscapes in and around Santa Fe, so that we can all enjoy the quiet open spaces, big vistas, and nearby forests that make Santa Fe such a special place.
