Flathead Land Trust celebrates placement of conservation easements on two area properties

Minnesota residents, the Kohrs began visiting the Flathead Valley in 2001. Since then, they’ve bought up roughly 655 acres of farmland and wildlife habitat along the Stillwater River, beginning with the purchase of a 20-acre parcel in 2005. With the help of the Flathead Land Trust, that 655-acre tract is now under a conservation easement, one of two properties in the region the nonprofit finished shepherding through the process in December.
