The North Shore Land Alliance has launched an urgent capital campaign to protect five irreplaceable acres of environmentally significant land in Oyster Bay Cove, NY—a once-in-a-generation opportunity to conserve open space that directly supports clean water, wildlife, and public access to nature.

We must raise $1.72 million by February 2026 to purchase the land and provide for its long-term stewardship. Every dollar you give brings us closer to preserving this vital piece of Long Island’s natural heritage forever.

Why This Land Matters

This almost five-acre parcel, known as the Pulling Property, is not just beautiful, it’s essential.
