  1. Role of Ranchlands in Supporting Wildlife: We will highlight how ranchlands provide essential habitats for various wildlife species, emphasizing their importance in preserving biodiversity.

  2. Promotion of Local Foods:  Connection between ranchlands and local food production, emphasizing the benefits of consuming locally sourced foods for both health and sustainability.

  3. Grazing as Soil Regeneration: Educating the public about the positive impact of grazing practices on soil health and regeneration, emphasizing how responsible grazing can improve soil fertility and mitigate erosion.

  4. Preservation of Open Space: Emphasizing the significance of ranching as a land use in preserving open spaces and landscapes, contrasting it with the alternative of housing developments which can lead to habitat loss and fragmentation.
