The Open Space Authority purchased 160-acres of pristine property in a partnership with Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST). The Authority will add the land to its 4,334 acre Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve.
“This property contains the headwaters of Twin Falls Creek in Edson Canyon, a tributary of Llagas Creek. Preservation of this land allows us to expand our stewardship of this fragile watershed and contribute to the protection of our county’s water supply,” said Open Space Authority’s General Manager Andrea Mackenzie.
POST purchased the land from the Steiner family. “We were lucky to have a place to go where we could connect to something bigger, where natural laws made sense, where there was a sense of wholeness,” said Ramalina Steiner, “I feel as if I’m selling a little piece of heaven.”
