OUR HISTORY

Hilton Head Island Land Trust is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1987 for the purpose of protecting significant parcels of land on Hilton Head for the enjoyment of future generations. The Land Trust consists of a 12 member all volunteer Board of Directors and dedicated members. We have no paid staff and all operations are accomplished by our volunteer board and members.

Every year beautiful and valuable open space is lost to development. To address this situation, a group of concerned citizens founded the Hilton Head Island Land Trust.

For more than two decades, a small group of Hilton Head Island residents has experimented in time travel, attempting to transport people thousands of years into the past to a sea island untouched by man.
