The Trust for Public Land
Cultural Landscape Award
With a vision to protect the unique natural heritage of fast-growing San Diego County, this award winner works to preserve important regional landscapes. With a population of more than three million countywide, our fast-growing communities need a proponent to preserve distinctive landscapes that define San Diego's history, culture, and economy. The Trust for Public Land is such a proponent. TPL has purchased and protected nearly 29,000 acres throughout San Diego, from Daley Ranch in Escondido to Otay Valley Regional Park in Chula Vista, from Volcan Mountain near Julian to the San Diego National Wildlife Refuge in Jamul. The act of preserving natural landscapes is laudable in and of itself. However, it also does so much more such as preserving the archeological, cultural, and architectural resources that are part of that landscape.
