North Florida Land Trust invites you to share our vision of creating the Conservation Resource Center, which is a property adjacent to a critical watershed within our region. This project will create a new gateway to one of our most magnificent preserves by acquiring the old Oar House Restaurant building and property on Mickler Road, just west of A1A in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, to be conserved as a place to Learn, Live and Play in Your Own Back Yard.
North Florida Land Trust is working to raise $3 million for acquisition, renovation, and development of this Conservation Resource Center along the northern border of the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve (GTMNERR, commonly known as the Guana Preserve). The proximity to the reserve and other established conservation lands managed by the Land Trust as well as the opportunity created by the current commercial market make this acquisition especially desirable.
"Moonlight on the Marsh" Join us at the mysteriously remote Outpost along the west bank of the Guana River foa a star-lit, Black-tie and Blue Jeans Gala. .
