A generational conservation opportunity. A family devoted to their community.
A legacy that will last forever.
SELT, the Town of Lee, and the greater Seacoast region have the opportunity to conserve more than 350 acres of productive farmland, forests, and wildlife habitat, thanks to the Banks family. In June of 2026, SELT reached agreement with Jim and Marianne Banks to conserve more than 350 acres of the family’s land through four separate conservation easements.
