The Phillips Creek Farm Project
Phillips Creek Farm covers almost 250 acres and only 9 of those are reserved for homesites. "Instead of seeing how many houses
we could cram on the farm, we wanted to see how few we could put there and still make it viable," says Lynn Badger.
The core of the Reserve's mission is community-based conservation. Lisa Volgenau, executive director of The Volgenau Foundation, says, "My family has made a long-term commitment to working with The Nature Conservancy to protect the coastal ecosystem."
