Conservation & Sustainability

Our Commitment

Triple Creek Ranch is nestled amidst over four million acres of Montana’s National Forest Service land, and we deeply value the preservation of this wilderness and its wildlife.

Conservation

Our owners, Barbara & Craig Barrett, are dedicated stewards of this land. They have taken significant steps to protect the environment, including dedicating thousands of acres of our sister ranch, the CB, to conservation in partnership with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. This land remains undeveloped, serving as a wildlife sanctuary for elk, deer, bison, birds, and other creatures. Additionally, they have even purchased neighboring properties with homes solely to return the land entirely back to nature. They have also planted over 100,000 trees to support reforestation, and practice active wildfire mitigation.

Sustainability

At Triple Creek Ranch, we have implemented several sustainable practices. In partnership with ‘Clean World‘, we recycle bar soaps and offer shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in refillable containers. Additionally, we provide guests with refillable aluminum bottles instead of plastic water bottles & utilize recycled paper bags in our kitchen, as well as our gift shop, & recycled material totes for promotional events. We also have an award-winning gravity-fed irrigation system for our pastures, and have switched to energy-efficient light fixtures. To reduce our carbon footprint, promote biodiversity, and contribute to a healthier ecosystem we also utilize our orchards & garden as well as an apiary at both ranch locations, allowing us to provide our guests with fresh ‘farm to table’ honey, ciders, & produce.

We believe that responsible environmental stewardship is essential, and we’re committed to doing our part to protect this magnificent land for future generations.
