Abstract
The 2010 purchase of Orton and Kendal plantations by Louis Moore Bacon under the name of Orton Plantation Holding, LLC brought many changes. While previously Orton had been managed as public gardens, the property would in the future be a private residence. The management of the property would focus on environmental stewardship. The long leaf pine forests, previously converted to more quickly growing pines were thinned and long leaf pines were re-established. The rice fields, previously converted to wildlife management ponds, were repaired in anticipation of once again growing rice.
