A Best-Practice Model of Hill Country Land Restoration
Spicewood Ranch is becoming a living example of what we think the Texas Hill Country looked like before fences, over-grazing, suppression of fires, and development.
Spicewood Ranch exists to protect, restore, and share the natural beauty of the Hill Country. Through education, demonstration, and research partnerships, the ranch inspires others to undertake their own restoration efforts by showing what’s possible with pragmatic land management practices, and patience.
Our Work
With decades of hands-on restoration work, we’re bringing back the native grasslands, trees, shrubs and flowers - managing invasive species, protecting wildlife habitat, and sharing what we learn along the way.
