The news has been circulating for some time now amongst Kiawah, Seabrook, and Johns islanders, Rosebank Farms will soon move to a new location at the entrance of Kiawah River!
After Rosebank Farms owners, Sidi Limehouse and Lousie Bennett broke ground at the farm stand’s new location, the Kiawah Conservancy was presented with a unique opportunity to acquire the property that they had so gracefully occupied for the past several years. At the heart of the Conservancy's mission is a commitment to preserve and protect the natural places and wildlife corridors of Kiawah Island and its surrounding enviorns.
After many months of planning and negotiation, the Conservancy is excited to announce the preservation of 4368 Betsy Kerrison Parkway, our first preserved property on Johns Island and a venture that the Limehouse Family is incredibly pleased with. According to Louise Bennett, "Sidi and I are extremely happy to see this property preserved by the Kiawah Conservancy. We know that the Conservancy will ensure the property remains as it should, a true and natural part of Johns Island." Louise also noted that they are very happy about Rosebank Farms’ move to their new location at the entrance to Kiawah River and are grateful to the Conservancy for extending their time at the current location until the new space is complete.
This acquisition is just one part of the Kiawah Conservancy’s ongoing efforts to maintain and enhance the natural wonders that make our area so special. By safeguarding these areas, we provide a haven for wildlife, protect native flora and fauna, and maintain the scenic beauty that captivates us all.
We encourage you to join us in this endeavor by supporting the Kiawah Conservancy’s conservation initiatives.
