Preserving our lands and heritage through land conservation

Land Acknowledgement:
We at the Sutter Buttes Regional Land Trust acknowledge that our mission of protecting and maintaining the natural and agricultural resources in and around the region currently called the Sutter Buttes was carried out by members of local indigenous tribes for thousands of years. We acknowledge that this indigenous stewardship was disrupted, leading to a loss of cultural heritage and a loss of native plants and animals. We acknowledge that people with ancestral connections to the land are still here among us today, and that a myriad of people consider these lands sacred.

Thank you to all our contributing Photographers! We so appreciate you!
A special thank you to Jeremy Vesley for our 2025/26 Calendar Cover Photo and our Website Header.

Join Today and Help Us Serve Sutter, Colusa
and Yuba Counties

Each year you can see the wonderful work we accomplish through the land trust. Together, we've committed resources to protect over 2,000 acres of conservation lands. As a member, you are part of each of our projects. Your support allows us to lay the ground work of time, information and connections from which all of our land protection projects are born. There are many great projects underway now and with your membership this year, you'll help protect the land within the Sutter Buttes and beyond, help maintain the Pacific Flyway for migrating waterfowl, as well as, preserving important agricultural lands that support our local farming and economy.
