Wetlands Restoration Program - 08/14/11 04:48 PM
 The Wetlands Restoration Program is an excellent conservation to raparian zones. Currently in SC there are four Wetlands Restoration Programs in place. Conservation is the main issue surrounding these programs. The first program in South Carolina was established in 2002, known as the Kiawah Island Restoration Program, partially funded by NOAA. $15,150 was provided to establish salt marsh vegetation, shoreline buffers, and oyster reefs in that area. These types of programs have become popular with current landowners whose goal is to re-establish natural wetlands on their properties. An example of restoring properties back to their natural state is removing ditches. A … (0 comments)

Why You Should Invest in Land TODAY! - 08/12/11 07:27 PM

In my opinion, current purchases of Farmland and Timber will ALL be long term assets in the coming years. Now is the time to buy LAND because commodities are at an all time high and prices have decreased in some properties to over 50% in recent years, especially in 2011. PineTimber prices seem to be stable at this time. I predict those prices will remain stable or increase in the future. I would suggest taking your money and place it into this tangible asset - LAND. I specialize in the state of SC. Hence SCLANDMAN.....I currently have a large portfolio … (1 comments)
