NEW FILMS: Colorado Conservation Heroes

On October 3rd, Palmer Land Trust hosted the 10th Annual Southern Colorado Conservation Awards, which honored some of Colorado’s greatest conservation heroes. As part of the awards ceremony, we made a short film about each honoree, all of which are below.

I had the pleasure of working with filmmaking whiz and all-around-good-dude Blake Kimmel on the films for Pete McBride, Ranchlands, and Dr. Mike Bartolo, which took us from the base of the Maroon Bells to the irrigated farms of the Lower Arkansas Valley; from the 87,000-acre Chico Basin Ranch to the high desert of Santa Fe, New Mexico.

The results of our work is below, along with the fourth film featuring conservationists and lifetime achievement winners Lyda Hill and Nancy Lewis, which was created by Blake and some of my Palmer colleagues.

Please enjoy and share!
