Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
We conserve the lands and waters of California's heartland.
Activities or mission (Part I)
SRT engages landowners, farmers, conservationists, business partners, and governmental agencies in the counties of Tulare, Fresno, Kern and Kings to collaborate on land conservation throughout California's South Central Valley heartland.
-
SRT provides Mitigation services to find and acquire either land or easements to offset development sites. SRT now holds over 42,000 acres in protected lands. SRT's Conservation Stewardship manages and monitors wildlife habitat, protects open spaces, guards against misuse of land, and promotes healthy environmental practices. Not only does Stewardship manage easements, it manages its own preserves totaling 11,328 acres.
Expenses $1,121,381 · Grants $2,985 · Revenue $556,442
-
Education and volunteer programs: field trips, seminars, walking tours and SRT's own EARTH Academy provide educational opportunities to youth, families and the general public to learn about the natural history of our area, the biological diversity, and the importance of preserving our open spaces and natural resources. Volunteers help restore and maintain the health of our nature preserves and educate our community amount sustainability.
Expenses $390,922 · Grants $4,176 · Revenue $109,389
-
SRT's Policy Department coordinates with stakeholders ranging from farmers and ranchers to business leaders, public health experts and representatives of under served communities to be sure that when key decisions are made, there is a voice for conservation at the table. By reaching out to others and finding common ground, we help to inform land use and transportation planning, water policy and decisions about conservation funding. Thanks in part to in-depth reports researched and authored by our Director of Planning and Policy, SRT is a leading voice on policy solutions to support the protection of habitat and agricultural land.
Expenses $118,959
-
Nursery (growing and selling native plants). Offers the public a chance to adopt and grow native plants that often are more drought resistant and preserves native species.
Expenses $32,627 · Revenue $13,841
-
Grazing & Bee Income: Contracts with ranchers to allow livestock to graze on SRT preserves. Grazing offers a great educational opportunity to demonstrate how good grazing management leads to a more productive mix of plants and increases the regenerative capacity of the land.
Revenue $45,944
-
Investments & Partnerships develops messaging to help tell our story to the broadest audience possible in order to inspire, educate, and inform the public about our increasingly crucial conservation mission. Communications generates content for the SRT website, e-newsletter, blog, and social media sites.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
