GSAR land conservation
GSAR believes that land conservation strategies that help landowners keep family lands and heritage lands intact are powerful tools for long term preservation of historic and archeological sites. GSAR's Buttermilk Creek Conservation Initiative focuses on providing conservation solutions and partnerships to the landowners along Buttermilk Creek with a preservation mindset. We are driven to build on the conservation success that has resulted in the protection, forever, of the Gault Site and its surrounding landscape. GSAR is currently working with landowners along Buttermilk Creek and beyond to enhance the regional archaeological perspectives along with preservation solutions for such heritage landscapes.
