The "woods" in our neighborhoods are just an illusion and will continue to disappear unless we buy or otherwise acquire land and permanentatly protect it.
Each parcel of land on this example street in North Port is individually owned and subject to being completely clear-cut for residential development, removing vital habitat for our wildlife and erasing our tree canopy and native plant life.
Many neighborhoods in Sarasota and Charlotte Counties still consist of streets like this one with a mix of natural land parcels and developed-residential home parcels.
Rapid land development is demolishing wildlife habitat DAILY. We acquire neighborhood land to help retain nature's biodiversity and ensure at least some native wildlife will retain their homes to remain within forever, while humans do the same around them.
We can coexist!
