Elkhorn Slough Foundation Emeritus Board of Director Honored
Congratulations to Diane Porter Cooley named “Farmer of the Year” by the Santa Cruz County Farm Bureau at their annual dinner on Sept 25!
Diane is a founding member of the Elkhorn Slough Foundation’s Board of Directors. She has provided her insight and generosity for nearly 25 years. Diane’s involvement with ESF doesn’t stop there however. She has given ESF easements on the lovely California Old Oak Grove on her Porter Ranch, along with other locations. ESF also manages land Diane donated to The Nature Conservancy to guarantee the land’s protection.
Diane wants to ensure that farming continues in the Pajaro Valley and we are proud to work with her on conserving and restoring the Elkhorn Slough watershed. She has been invaluable in the accomplishments of the Foundation.
Read the story in the Santa Cruz Sentinel. Congratulations Diane!
