Since its inception, the trust has worked with voluntary landowners and other conservation partners to conserve 187,229 acres (757.69 km2) of rangeland on 27 ranches across 19 counties.Steve Sinton was the Rangeland Trust's founding chairman. A graduate of Stanford University and the University of Colorado Law School, Stinton practiced water and environmental law in Sacramento, California and San Luis Obispo County for fifteen years before retiring to operate two family cattle ranches with his father and manage several commercial buildings in the City of San Luis Obispo. The Sinton family also operates a 120-acre (0.49 km2) vineyard. Steve is a member of the California Cattlemen's Association, the San Luis Obispo County Cattlemen's Association and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, the San Luis Obispo County Water Resources Advisory Committee, and the San Luis Obispo County Native Tree Committee. Stinton was awarded the National American Farmland Trust Steward of the year in 2005.In California, there are over 22 million acres (89,000 km2) of privately owned rangeland. The California Rangeland Trust would be able to conserve nearly 500,000 acres (2,000 km2) of rangeland if funding was available. The Rangeland Trust uses conservation easements as the tool to conserve rangeland properties.Notable ranches in the Trust's portfolio include: Yolo Land & Cattle Co., Yolo CountyYolo Land & Cattle Co. placed 6,983-acre (28.26 km2) into a conservation easement on March 25, 2005. This cattle ranch, located in the inner-coastal rangeland of the Blue Ridge Berryessa Natural Area, contains ponds, wetlands, streams and open spaces that provide habitat for many types of plants and wildlife. Ecker Ranch, Madera CountyEcker Ranch, a 1,080-acre (4.4 km2) ranch is now protected by an agricultural easement.Tejon Ranch, Kern CountyIn 2000, California Rangeland Trust accepted the donation of a 1,122-acre (4.54 km2) easement as mitigation for a commercial development located in the northwest corner of Tejon Ranch. As a condition of approval for the development, Tejon Ranch Company donated an easement on nearby grazing land in order to protect habitat for the San Joaquin kit fox and blunt-nosed leopard lizard.Hearst Ranch, San Luis Obispo CountyIn 2005, the Hearst Corporation, American Land Conservancy, California Rangeland Trust, and the State of California completed a comprehensive conservation project that permanently protects the 128-square-mile (330 km2) Hearst Ranch. A major component of the project is the conservation easement restricting future development on 80,000 acres (320 km2). The Hearst ranch is the largest privately owned working cattle ranch remaining on the California Coast. The conservation easement ensures that the scenic, open space, agricultural and natural resource values of the ranch are preserved. California Rangeland Trust holds, monitors and enforces the conservation easement.San Lucas Ranch, Santa Barbara CountyA conservation easement agreement was placed on December 27, 2007. Originally part of the historic Spanish land grant, Rancho Cañada de los Pinos, the owners purchased San Lucas Ranch in 1924. This donated easement on 1,534 acres (6.21 km2) of the working ranch preserves a piece of California’s western heritage and habitat resources. It is part of a much larger unified ecological landscape which includes scenic mountain and riparian views of the Santa Ynez Valley and the surrounding mountain ranges. A primary value of this property is the Valley Oak savannah and grasslands that once covered most of the valley.V6 Ranch, Fresno and Monterey CountiesIn March 2001, a conservation easement protected the entire 17,000 acres (69 km2) ranch of John and Zee Varian near Parkfield, California that is part of the Diablo Range Project. The property is in one of the most productive grazing regions in the state and includes significant oak woodlands and other unique and important natural values.".
