Issue Expertise

Land, Water & Natural Resources

Experience navigating the policy, public, and stakeholder issues surrounding land, water, conservation, and natural resources in Colorado, the West, and nationally.

Experience where policy, people, and place intersect.

Decisions involving land, water, and natural resources rarely affect a single interest. Communities, landowners, policymakers, agencies, businesses, conservation organizations, and resource users can all have a stake in the outcome.

Freestone brings decades of public policy, government, communications, and stakeholder experience to help clients understand the interests at play, engage the right people, and navigate complex decisions with perspective and purpose.

Western Water Issues

Water across the West brings competing demands for a limited resource. Policy decisions can affect communities, agriculture, recreation, conservation, growth, and infrastructure.

Our experience helps organizations understand the interests at play and engage effectively around consequential water issues.

Private Land Conservation

Successful conservation often depends on bringing landowners, communities, government, and nonprofit interests together.

Freestone brings perspective from across those interests to support productive partnerships, sound policy, and effective public engagement.

Public & Private Land Use

Land use decisions can put property interests, community priorities, economic considerations, and regulatory requirements in the same conversation.

We help clients understand that environment and engage effectively with the people and institutions involved.

Natural Resources

Natural resource decisions often balance conservation with economic activity, recreation, community priorities, and long-term stewardship.

Our team brings experience across these interests to identify what matters and determine a practical way forward.

Private Property Rights

Public policy decisions can have significant implications for private landowners and property interests.

Freestone helps clients understand the policy environment, engage decision-makers and stakeholders, and advocate effectively for their interests.

Western Rooted Perspective

Understanding the issue means understanding who it affects.

The West’s most consequential land and water questions rarely have one perspective or one simple answer.

Freestone’s team brings complementary experience across government, public policy, advocacy, communications, business, and community engagement. That breadth of perspective helps clients understand the interests surrounding an issue and what it may take to move forward.
