The Land: Spring Newsletter

Just 15 months ago, the Land Trust for Santa Barbara County launched a $7.9 million campaign to buy Carpinteria Bluffs III, a small but important portion of the larger Carpinteria Bluffs area that overlooks Rincon Point.

Raising $6.9 million, the Land Trust for Santa Barbara County is now the proud owner of 21 acres of open space on the Carpinteria Bluffs, a piece of oceanfront land that, over the years, investors have pushed to develop into a destination resort ​— ​only to be rebuffed by a conservation-minded community willing to back up sentiment with lots of cash.

Inside this issue: anticipating the Strategic Plan, a tribute to two special women, a fresh face on the Board of Trustees, and a new conservation easement at Betteravia Farms! Check out the Spring newsletter to stay current with the Land Trust.
