“I believe the best way to educate everyone, from those unsympathetic to ranching operations to fellow producers, is to be willing to show them the rewards we have reaped by being good stewards of the resources we own and control.”
— Darrell Johnson

Utah - Past Leopold Conservation Award Winners

2008 - Darrell Johnson

One would be hard pressed to find someone more connected to their land than Darrell and Carol Johnson. The Johnson Ranch, in Tooele County, has been part of Darrell’s life for longer than he can remember. He grew up working on the ranch and planned how he would run the operation until he got his opportunity in 1962 when he began to purchase land from his uncles. He partnered with his father, Orson, until 1988.

2007 - Harold Selman Ranches

The fourth generation Harold Selman Ranches has a long tradition of land stewardship, beginning in the 1940s with Harold and Dorthella Selman. Their land ethic was passed on to their son, Fred, who, along with his wife, Laura, and their son, Bret, and his wife, Michelle, continues to manage the ranching operation.
