Author: The Daily News Now! September 17, 2026 Duration: 1:33

A historic 308-acre farm in the Amsterdam-Churchill area, Wheat Ridge Farm, is now permanently protected thanks to a partnership with the Gallatin Valley Land Trust. This cherished Anderson family property, active since 1917, will remain a working farm for wheat, barley, alfalfa, and cattle — preserving both agricultural heritage and vital wildlife habitat. The conservation effort connects to over 12,000 acres of protected land, funded through a mix of donations, local, and federal support. It’s a powerful example of rural stewardship ensuring the land’s legacy endures for generations.
