Cache Creek

The 13 Cache Creek easements the Yolo Land Trust holds are located on 2,342 acres of prime soil north of the city of Woodland along Cache Creek. Cache Creek enters Yolo County north of Rumsey and runs south through the Capay Valley flowing east, ending in a settling basin east of Woodland. The waterway provides important riparian and fish habitat, as well as surface irrigation water for local farms.

  • 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.
