We first launched our neighborhood land conservation mission within the City of North Port in the Spring of 2020. The concept of neighborhood land conservation was a very foreign one to many at that time so we wanted to keep our initial effort small, but it was always the goal to expand into Sarasota and Charlotte Counties.
As of 7/31/2024 we've acquired 42 parcels across North Port, Harbour Heights, Port Charlotte, Deep Creek, El Jobean and Englewood. See the "Protected Areas/Gallery" tab of our website for further details.
We are currently working on expanding into Punta Gorda, South Venice and Rotonda/Gulf Cove.
In summary, we are open to acquiring land in ANY neighborhood in AND beyond North Port and subsequently added the "And Surrounding Areas" verbiage to our name to let our supporters know.
To us, any natural neighborhood greenspace, no matter its size, is worth saving!
