Landscaping choices affect water quality, wildlife habitat, wildfire resilience, and the long-term health of our local ecosystem. Many landowners are new to Montana or mountain land stewardship, so our Landowner Toolkit offers practical guidance for caring for your property in ways that benefit both your home and community.

Big Sky is a rare ecosystem shaped by long winters, short dry summers, wildfire risk, and a water supply tied to snowpack. These conditions call for landscapes that are resilient and work with the natural environment.

​

This toolkit is part of our ongoing effort to inform, inspire, and support sustainable landowner decisions. Whether starting fresh or improving an existing landscape, we are here to help.

Protecting what makes this place special requires shared stewardship. This toolkit will continue to grow, and we welcome your feedback.
