Yesterday, Yavapai-Apache Nation Chairwoman Tanya Lewis and Prescott National Forest Supervisor Sarah Clawson signed the final Yavapai-Apache Land Exchange documents, marking a historic moment nearly three decades in the making. This land exchange provides our Nation with a sustainable future socially, economically, and culturally, and is a direct result of our collaborative work with the U.S. Forest Service and the many stakeholders throughout the Verde Valley.
“We are proud to share this historic land exchange for the Yavapai-Apache Nation with the U.S. Forest Service and our neighbors throughout the Verde Valley, demonstrating that working together we can collectively achieve conservation of natural resources, preservation of cultural heritage and cultivation of tribal and regional economies to ensure a future of hope and sustainability.β
