Preserving the natural and scenic character of St. Simons Island

Old Stables Corner is Under Threat

Glynn County officials have informed Land Trust leadership of their plan to take roughly 22% (approx. 1/2 acre) of the beloved Old Stables Corner to construct a roundabout at the Sea Island Road/Frederica Road intersection. If implemented, the plan would result in the grading and paving of greenspace and the removal of 26 trees, including 13 live oaks.

WE PARTNER WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES AND THEIR PATRONS.

Pennies for Preservation is a voluntary 1% giving program in which the business community helps raise funds to preserve and protect greenspaces, wilderness areas, trails, waterways, wildlife, important habitat, and tree canopy on St. Simons Island.
