- Significant urban development, especially in and around Colorado Springs and Fountain.
- Predominantly characterized by urban and suburban areas (El Paso and Pueblo County).
- Increasing urban development and a focus on maintaining the rural landscape.
- Considerable areas of natural landscapes, including parks and open spaces.
- Agricultural land is present, reflecting the region’s historical ties to farming and ranching.
- Several predominantly rural communities, with agriculture being a significant land use.
- Presence of grasslands and prairies.
- Multiple military installations, including Air Force, Army, and Space Force.
- Proximity to the Arkansas River Basin (Colorado’s largest) and Fountain Creek.
"If we are bold in our thinking, courageous in accepting new ideas, and willing to work with instead of against our land, we shall find in conservation farming an avenue to the greatest food production the world has ever known."
