North Carolina Coastal Land Trust

The developer of Carolina Colours is honored to be a sponsor of the North Carolina Land Trust.  For those not familar with the organization, it is a non-profit that, working coorperatively with land owners, purchases lands or easements in eastern North Carolina that are important for habitat, recreation or environmental purposes, or even small farming operations, using money provided by donors, governmental agencies and private grants.

Those of us in Carolina Colours should be pleased that the Land Trust recently proteced 135 acres in our county of Craven, which is adjacent to 163 acres previously protected.  These acquistions help to protect the headwaters of Anderson Creek, and to provide a buffer around the Cherry Point military base.  This tract is also near th Land Trust’s Magnolia Farm Preserve, and the Croatan National Forest.

The Land Trust has now protected 45,388 acres in North Carolina!  Carolina Colours is pleased to donate a membership in the Land Trust to each purchaser of developer owned property in Carolina Colours, adding to the 2110 household members of the organization.  We hope that our owners elect to continue their membership long into the future, as the special nature of eastern North Carolina is enhanced with each new acre protected.  For more information, visit www.coastallandtrust.org.

Enjoy Antique Cars in New Bern, NC

New Bern Antique Car Show

We truly enjoyed the antique car show in New Bern, NC on Sunday afternoon.

Over 500 antique cars were displayed.  The cars came from all over the country.

New Bern, Coastal North Carolina, and the Carolina Colours community offer so many recreational, educational, cultural and historical opportunities, it’s hard to decide how to spend our Sunday afternoons.
