THE CONTINUATION OF A COMMUNITY-WIDE EFFORT TO PRESERVE ST. SIMONS
Since its founding in 2000, the St. Simons Land Trust has acquired and protected more than 1,100 acres of rare habitat, maritime forests, tree canopy, and historic properties. We invite you to learn more about this capital campaign and how you can join us in continuing this important work.
PROTECTING THOSE 1,100-PLUS ACRES HAS HELPED TO:
BUT THERE IS STILL MUCH WORK TO BE DONE.
THE LAND TRUST HAS IDENTIFIED TWO OF THE LAST REMAINING LARGE TRACTS ON ST. SIMONS:
A. Sinclair Property: 39-acre tract on the east side of Lawrence Rd. with nearly 100 lot entitlements
B. Middle Oatland/Hasell Property: 40.7-acre tract that serves as the keystone between the north and south parcels of the former Oatland Plantation. Once purchased, these three properties, combined with Cannon’s Point Preserve, will result in 720 contiguous acres protected in perpetuity.
Your support in securing these undeveloped tracts will help complete the island’s protected “wilderness corridor.”
$5.5 MILLION CANOPY CAPITAL CAMPAIGN PROVIDES:
Please consider joining the community-wide effort to preserve the magnificent beauty of St. Simons. Each protected acre is a gift to the community, and each gift from the community is greatly appreciated.
