LET'S WORK TOGETHER NOW
Huge thanks to the many generous donors who helped SSI Water Preservation Society purchase Lot H of the Larmour Lands—20 acres of important forest and wetland habitat.
Let’s work together now to protect Lot F with its mature forest, biodiverse wetlands and ponds, fertile farmland, and some of the largest trees on Salt Spring. |
