In October of 2022, Earl Frederick and Terry Thompson donated a conservation easement on Rock Bottom Farm, 49 acres, to Virginia Eastern Shore Land Trust.
The VES Land Trust Board of Directors with Jane Newcombe and Bill and Colette Nelson hosted the annual Oyster Roast Dinner at The Folly April 12, 2025.
The Virginia Eastern Shore Land Trust held the second Picture the Shore contest and art show this fall. Students from Nandua Middle School, Broadwater Academy, and Northampton High School participated with Professional and Amateur Photographers from the community.
“Our revised logo more clearly represents our mission of protecting property by highlighting features such as agriculture, habitation, waterways, wetlands, buffer strips, trees and shrubs. We especially want to emphasize the beauty and benefits of our easement donors living on and with the land,” said David Turner.
