Save Mount Diablo acquired the Ginochio Schwendel Ranch — a 98-acre property along the Marsh Creek wildlife corridor, between Clayton and Brentwood — for $1.45 million, the group announced Thursday.
That land will now be permanently preserved and managed as part of a new state program focused on the San Andreas fault’s inner coast, including the 200-mile Diablo Range.
