Florida CCA needs Volunteers to Collect Mangrove Propagules

We’re calling on volunteers to help us collect mangrove propagules on the west coast of Florida, these are essential seedlings that will be used in future restoration projects aimed at preserving our coastal ecosystems. The Mangrove Roundup will take place throughout September, with various pickups from a CCA Staff member throughout the month.

This is your chance to make a direct impact on the environment and contribute to the preservation of Florida’s coastal habitats. By volunteering, you'll not only gain hands-on experience in environmental restoration but also connect with a community of like-minded individuals who share your passion for conservation.

To get involved, simply read the flyer for instructions on how to collect and preserve the propagules. To arrange pickup contact Lkennovin@ccaflorida.org - 386-506-6166. We encourage you to bring along friends and family to join in this important work. Together, we can ensure the health and sustainability of our mangroves for generations to come.
