It seems like every time we turn on the news, we hear some disheartening reports about losing Florida wild spaces and grasslands to development. From residential communities springing up in ecologically sensitive areas, to water pollution in Florida, or the increasing number of our rare and local wildlife that are being added to the endangered or threatened species list.

Sometimes it feels like we may be losing the battle. But we’d like to share something positive instead and shed some light on the amazing organizations and citizens that are working hard to conserve land in the State of Florida. There have been some recent victories in 2019 that are worth sharing, if you are a resident of Florida and you care about preserving our natural beauty and wildlife for generations to come. And some conservation organizations that could use our help.
