Join us for the October Big Day event, where Rhonda Lovett will lead us on a tour of the 515-acre Gourd Island Conservation Area, which features wetland and upland natural communities, including floodplain swamp, basin swamp, dome swamp, depression marsh, wet flatwoods, mesic flatwoods, sandhill and xeric hammock. The Florida Department of Transportation acquired the property in December 2010 and subsequently donated it to the St. Johns River Water Management District as mitigation for wetland impacts elsewhere.
We encourage you to consider joining the SJRA and advanced registration is required!
