Several funding entities, including Beaufort County and the US Department of Agriculture, have pooled resources to acquire several key conservation easements on St. Helena Island as well as outright ownership of 19 acres on Hilton Head.

In addition, the three easements allow the current property owners to continue farming the historic Beaufort County lands.
