The Land Trust would like to thank restoration specialist Jason Grant, who recently transitioned from the organization.

Jason joined the Land Trust in early 2020, focusing on restoration project planning and implementation. He was involved in the Land Trust's restoration work at Rimrock Ranch, Ochoco Preserve, and Willow Springs Preserve. Jason has moved to Tetra Tech as their Pacific Northwest Regional Stream Restoration Lead.

"Jason really elevated the Land Trust's leadership in regional floodplain restoration," says stewardship director Amanda Egertson. "He had strong vision, was a great collaborator, he built and strengthened partnerships, secured critical funding for large scale projects, and approached challenges in a calm, even-keeled manner. His team player attitude helped bridge gaps and his passion for conservation and stewardship resonated strongly through all of his work. We will really miss him at the Land Trust, but we're so happy to know that he'll be applying all of these incredible skills to watershed restoration across the Pacific Northwest."

Thank you, Jason!
