Rolling Fescue Foothills

Apr 22, 2021 | Foothills

The Waldron Ranch, south of Longview, Alberta, Canada, has quite the fantastic views. This is an endangered grassland that is normally over-taken by acreage ranchettes that prefer big expansive lawns of non-native grass over vast acres of Foothills Rough Fescue (Festuca hallii) and many other plant species that reside in the Foothills Fescue Grasslands of Alberta, and which are now protected thanks to a conservation easement put in place on several thousand acres that is the Waldron in the Porcupine Hills.
