We are thrilled to announce the upcoming grand opening of Conservation Florida's D Ranch Preserve for public access later this year, thanks to a generous donation from Florida Power & Light Company, through its charitable arm the NextEra Energy Foundation! 🥾🍃
Here's your chance to get a sneak peek and join our first trail-building efforts on Friday, May 3! You'll be contributing to the creation of over 3 miles of scenic trails that will wind through the preserve's diverse habitats, including scrubby flatwoods, mesic flatwoods, and depression marshes. Your efforts will ensure a memorable experience for all future visitors of D Ranch Preserve to enjoy!
