I came across the Equine Land Conservation Resource recently when made aware of a free webinar. My Horse University were hosting this and it was being presented by someone very passionate about land conservation for horse riders. This setup works to engage as well as strengthen local equine land conservation efforts. You can check them out online.
They have many articles online, looking at various aspects:
- Conservation Tools for Horse Lands
- Equine Access to Public Lands
- Benefits of Horses to Our Communities
And the list goes on. You can view all of their resources on their website. And if you would also like to get involved in the ELCR, then you can join them for a membership fee.
Apparently the Equine Land Conservation Resource works through their members and partners to help raise awareness in their local areas. This focuses on issues like the loss of horse lands.
Regarding joining on their website, it states:
“Your support helps ELCR continue to provide resources for those who are acting locally to keep land open for horses and horse-related uses. By lending your support now, you will help protect the lands we need to enjoy and care for our horses for generations to come.”
You can do so as an individual for a $28.00 fee or as a business for $100.00. Or maybe you would like to gift a membership to someone else. This you can also do for $28.00.
This setup seems like a great benefit to those who love exploring trails on their horses. I can see that it would also greatly benefit those who run a trail riding business. But I am sure the resources would be of general benefit to horse land owners, too.
