Do you #GiveAHoot about gravel pits, glamping and other threats?
We know that you care about what happens in your backyard! Over the years, our community has worked together to stop gravel pits, gold mines, industrial tire pits and more.
Absent local regulatory tools, it becomes the responsibility of neighbors to show up, ask hard questions, attend public meetings, and tell the story of the wildlife, water, culture and the public lands that sustain our way of life.
Did you know that there is a proposed gravel pit on one of the last sections of accessible public lands in the heart of the Paradise Valley!
