Fund surveys, outplanting, reintroductions trials, and studies that help understand and improve knowledge of species biology, current distribution, and their present endangerment.
Rare plants account for nearly 15% of the state’s 2,864 native species, many of which can only be found in Florida. Some species have declined due to a long history of negative human impacts, while other species are rare due to biological constraints. Donate to our endowment to fund surveys, outplanting, reintroductions trials, and studies that help understand and improve knowledge of species biology, current distribution, and their present endangerment. Several important conservation projects are already underway, including the augmentation and introduction of Ziziphus celata; propagation, introduction, and habitat management of Torreya taxifolia; and reintroduction of Jacquemontia reclinata.
OUR OTHER WORK
Conserving Wildlife
We work with FWC and many others to conserve Florida’s outstanding animals and plants and the habitats they call home.
Combatting Invasives
Lionfish, Burmese pythons and tegu lizards are among the non-native species threatening Florida’s ecosystems. You can help.
Getting Kids Back to Nature
We help fund the Florida Youth Conservation Centers Network which provides 200,000 children and teens annually with outdoor experiences.
Preserving our Outdoor Heritage
Hunting helps maintain healthy populations of deer and other animals and provides an incentive to landowners to manage for wildlife.
