“Earth Heroes” by Mimi Towle “I was thrilled to get your latest issue of Marin Magazine with the nice stories about Elizabeth Terwilliger, Caroline Livermore and myself. It brought back proud memories of the battles that I waged in the 1960s and ’70s to establish Audubon Canyon Ranch, with the intention of doing everything possible to protect the magnificent beauty of Marin and its neighbor Sonoma County. We were successful in that battle in defeating Land Investors Research, a large speculative subdivision development firm based in Marin. Fortunately, I was able to write a book about saving the Marin and Sonoma Coast, published in 2000, which details all the battles we won to save the wildlands of Marin County that are still under pressure from big development by Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT), but with no public access. I believe our success in saving West Marin led to local groups all the way up the coast to Oregon that are working hard to save their watersheds, rivers, the ocean, coast and wildlife. I’m forwarding your magazine to the directors of Audubon Canyon Ranch as a valuable source of ideas for nature education. Thank you for the recognition as a staunch protector of Marin County wildlands and oceanic gems.” — Dr. Marty Griffin Dining Content “I read your restaurant reviews. However, some with multiple locations get listed for each of those locations and many well-known ones keep getting listed, whereas there are many small, struggling ones that could use the publicity. I would recommend Tup Tim in Larkspur, which is small, family-owned, and does everything with dignity and deserves some recognition as they try to stay afloat in these challenging times.” — Gail Bogetz-Gelb
