Our Mission
|
|
| The Mission of Friends of Alta is to protect the environment of Alta, including watershed and wildlife habitat areas; to preserve Alta’s unique character and heritage; and to encourage stewardship and sustainability of Alta’s environment and community.
|
 |
| Friends of Alta, Alta's local land trust facilitates acquisition and conservation of undeveloped privately owned lands in Alta that exhibit watershed and environmental values. We support the protective policies of the Town of Alta, Salt Lake City's watershed management policies, and the U.S. Forest Service's policies and their stewardship of the area's public lands. In order to encourage stewardship among the general public, we support environmental studies and other research in an effort to educate people about the area's fragile and unique environment, as well as the value and contribution Alta's natural resources add to local and regional economies. FOA provides support to others involved in enhancing the life and culture of the Alta community, including the provision of arts, historical, and recreation programs to the public. |
