Background on the Methow Conservancy's ownership of the Sunny M Ranch

At the end of December 2022, the Methow Conservancy launched the Imagine the Methow: the Campaign for Sunny M Ranch, with the intention of preserving 1200 acres of land near the Town of Winthrop, in the heart of the Methow Valley. Four values drove this conservation project: wildlife habitat, trails, agriculture, and housing that will be affordable for locals.

On June 15, 2023, we celebrated the community's success! With the incredible generosity of people who love the Methow Valley, the Methow Conservancy raised more than $8.7M to purchase the Sunny M Ranch and to seed a Stewardship & Maintenance Fund to ensure we can be responsible long-term stewards of the land. As we transition from campaign to land ownership and management, we plan to continue to engage the community in our efforts on Sunny M.
