Restoring Sheep Creek Ranch

Among the notable projects to be funded through this agreement is the Sheep Creek Ranch in Montana, encompassing over 2,700 acres of land devastated by the 2021 Harris Mountain Fire. The Sheep Creek Ranch holds immense ecological significance as it is a vital migration corridor connected to Yellowstone National Park. By restoring this forested landscape, Mast Reforestation plays a crucial role in preserving the migration routes of various species, including Rocky Mountain elk, grizzly bears, and Canada lynx. This reforestation effort will contribute to the long-term thriving of wildlife populations and the preservation of fragile ecosystems.

Moreover, the reforestation initiatives will create employment opportunities, supporting rural livelihoods in seed collection, nursery operations, site preparation, and seedling planting. The Sheep Creek Reforestation Project, in particular, is projected to remove hundreds of thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, generating an equivalent number of carbon removal credits and contributing to global efforts to combat climate change.
