Episode Details

Brunswick County’s conservation push is heating up as Unique Places to Save and St. James team up to protect 500+ acres of vital wetlands and forest—rated “excellent” by the state for water filtration, stormwater control, and wildlife habitat. After years of work managing over a thousand acres, they’re consolidating five parcels into four for easier stewardship. Town manager Jeff Repp is leading the charge, reapplying for $3M in state funding (they came close last time) with a matching commitment from the nonprofit. If approved by October next year, the land will be donated to the town—with 14 acres earmarked for a new passive park and trail system. This collaborative effort could set a powerful precedent for preserving nature and community space.
