There has been a 118% increase in land trusts in Georgia since 2010, according to the Land Trust Alliance. Some, like the Central Savannah River Land Trust in Augusta, which preserves nearly 10,000 acres of land, and the Chattahoochee Riverlands Trust for Public Land project, which has protected 18,000 acres of riverfront, are for conservation and public use. Some might limit the land to agricultural use.
