Joe and Elizabeth Murray.  Donation of Conservation Easement.

Murray Farm is adjacent to a county significant natural heritage site, Bass Mountain, in Alamance County. The farm encompasses rolling pastures surrounded by forests and streams. Having purchased this property in part for its natural beauty, the Murrays ensured these natural features were protected forever by donating a conservation easement protecting agricultural capacity, wildlife habitat, and the water quality of the streams that traverse the property. PLC accepted the easement in 2005.
