About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to preserve and protect lands, scenic vistas, heritage, and conservation resources of Edisto Island for future generations. Founded in 1994, EIOLT works with landowners, the community and its conservation partners to protect critical lands in perpetuity. This is accomplished through the donation or purchase of conservation easements. EIOLT's conserved properties, which represent the rich patchwork of the South Carolina Lowcountry, are treasured for their natural, recreational, cultural, archaeological, historic and scenic qualities. Through the work of EIOLT and its conservation partners, Edisto now has the highest percentage of undeveloped land of any barrier island on the South Carolina coast.
