Lochridge Ranch - Post Oak
Lochridge Ranch - Post Oak Savannah Region
The overriding management goal for the Cox family with Lochridge Ranch in Henderson and Anderson counties is to enhance and conserve the native ecosystem while maximizing the health, welfare and productivity of the local flora and fauna. Stewardship efforts over the years have demonstrated that livestock production and outdoor recreation activities are not counterproductive to healthy resource management. Clearing of timber, introduction of nonnative pasture, erosion and overgrazing had decreased the native post oak savanna and bottomland hardwood ecosystems. Today’s ranch is a far cry from the landscape that existed 50 years ago. Wetlands have been restored, upland timber thinned and burned, bottomland hardwoods reestablished, and fish and wildlife populations have responded accordingly.
