Preserving the Natural Beauty of the South Carolina Lowcountry

Our Charleston, S.C., office recently highlighted a visitor’s day for Lowcountry residents to the Charleston Museum’s Dill Sanctuary, the largest area of privately protected land on James Island. The Dill Sanctuary has rich historic and natural features with 580 acres of land preserved for wildlife. First and foremost a wildlife preserve, the sanctuary is home to a vast array of avian life. A six-acre pond with three nesting islands attracts numerous wading birds, including threatened wood storks, while maintained fields, surrounded by woodland, provide habitat for songbirds, wild turkeys, and raptors. The sanctuary also includes four Civil War batteries, two African-American cemeteries, and archaeological research sites. Multiple news outlets covered the event, including WCSC Channel 5 and the Post and Courier. We are honored to work with the Charleston Museum to preserve the natural and cultural history of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
