  • Mark and Karen Harrison

    Conserving the land was very important to Mark and Karen, they do not want to see it developed into housing, and they hope that the land will be in the family forever. In addition to protecting their land, the partnership with the Yolo Land Trust also gave the Harrisons a broader sense of community. The family attends Land Trust events and enjoys feeling like they are a part of a larger group of people who are interested in the stewardship of Yolo County land; a group of people who understands the importance of conserving land for future generations just as they do.
