John,
Before I ask you to start your annual membership support for 2022, I ask you to picture Banning Ranch, one of the largest tracts of private land remaining on the southern California coast.
Picture these 348 acres — a biologically diverse mix of coastal wetlands, riparian woodlands, coastal bluff sagescrub, grassland, vernal pools, and rare species habitat, all within a highly urbanized region in southern California — permanently protected.
Even better, picture the property as a public park, serving over 8.4 million people who live within an hour’s drive of the property — about half of whom are considered low-income and one-third of whom live in park-deficient communities.
That is the opportunity The Trust for Public Land has with Banning Ranch, and it’s just ONE of the many efforts you’ll be supporting when you join us with a membership gift today.

Your support is so important for Banning Ranch and for all the projects that are part of our aggressive plan to save one million acres of land, preserve 1,000 miles of scenic rivers, and build or connect 1,000 miles of trails by 2025.
In fact, our members helped us complete the Butte Falls Community Forest in Oregon. This 450-acre property provides this Oregon community with hiking and biking trails, a historic railroad park, park amenities to promote public access, and managed forestland.
But just a few days remain before we conclude our January Membership Drive, so I hope you won’t wait another day to become a member for 2022 today.
Sincerely,
Sabra Lugthart
Associate Director Membership
P.S. Every day, America loses 6,000 acres of forests, farms, meadows, and woods to incompatible development — that’s almost 2.2 million acres of lost land every year. When you picture that, I hope you won’t hesitate to join The Trust for Public Land to create parks and protect public land for people.
