The deal to preserve 1,340 acres at Sargent Ranch marks a turning point in the longstanding battle against a proposed sand and gravel quarry in the area.
Environmental advocates and local councils have consistently opposed development plans for Sargent Ranch, highlighting its historical significance and diverse wildlife.
With the acquisition of Pescadero Ranch, the Peninsula Open Space Trust aims to protect this untouched land while continuing grazing, with an eye towards ensuring its preservation.
POST envisions transferring the Pescadero Ranch to stakeholders who will uphold its conservation and prevent future development, signaling hope for ongoing environmental battles.
