Mission
To conserve, restore, and promote the sustainable use and enjoyment of our natural resources, including soil, air, woods, waters, and wildlife.
Program accomplishments
- At Eagle Haven Ranch, the organization implemented comprehensive conservation and land-stewardship activities to restore and enhance native wildlife habitat, improve ecosystem function, and support sustainable land management. Program activities included habitat restoration, prescribed land management, wetland and upland enhancement, invasive plant and animal control, wildlife monitoring, and science-based management of native species to increase biodiversity and ecological resilience. The ranch serves as a strategically located conservation property within the Florida Wildlife Corridor, helping maintain habitat connectivity between public lands, private ranches, and protected areas that support wide-ranging and imperiled species. By conserving and actively managing this working landscape, the program contributes to regional wildlife movement, protects water resources, and strengthens ecological processes that benefit the greater Everglades and central Florida ecosystems. The site also functions as an outdoor learning laboratory and demonstration area. Staff hosted educational workshops, field tours, and hands-on training opportunities for government agencies, conservation partners, nonprofit organizations, landowners, students, and members of the public. Programming emphasized best management practices for water-quality improvement, habitat restoration, wildlife stewardship, and sustainable land use that can be replicated on other public and private lands. Through these restoration, management, and education efforts, the organization advanced its charitable mission by protecting natural resources, strengthening the Florida Wildlife Corridor, improving fish and wildlife habitat, and providing conservation education and technical assistance that delivers lasting environmental and public benefits.Expenses $13,437
- The organization advanced restoration of the Greater Everglades ecosystem and regional water-quality improvement through coordinated planning, public engagement, and implementation of science-based conservation practices in partnership with state and federal agencies, local governments, nonprofit organizations, landowners, and community stakeholders. Program staff actively participated in public meetings, technical working groups, and interagency forums to inform restoration priorities, provide field-based expertise, and support collaborative solutions that improve ecosystem function, hydrology, and long-term natural resource management across the watershed. Activities focused on developing and demonstrating innovative approaches to reduce nutrient loading, improve water storage and flow, and restore wildlife habitat across agricultural and conservation landscapes. Efforts included piloting nutrient recycling and soil amendment techniques, promoting best management practices to reduce phosphorus and nitrogen runoff, enhancing wetlands and native habitats, and implementing land stewardship practices that increase water retention, soil health, and biodiversity. These initiatives contribute to measurable improvements in downstream water quality and strengthen the ecological resilience of the Greater Everglades ecosystem. The program also supports landscape-scale conservation and habitat connectivity within the Florida Wildlife Corridor. By restoring working lands and protecting natural systems, the organization enhances wildlife movement between public and private conservation areas, sustains large, connected habitats, and benefits wide-ranging and imperiled species dependent on the Florida Wildlife Corridor. In addition, the organization conducted extensive educational outreach through workshops, field tours, site demonstrations, and presentations for agency personnel, conservation professionals, landowners, students, and members of the public. Programming emphasized practical conservation tools, water stewardship, habitat restoration techniques, and responsible land and wildlife management practices that can be replicated throughout the region. Through these combined restoration, connectivity, and education efforts, the program strengthened partnerships, informed public decision-making, and advanced sustainable solutions that protect water resources, enhance fish and wildlife habitat, support the Florida Wildlife Corridor, and promote long-term conservation outcomes across the Greater Everglades ecosystem for the benefit of the public.Expenses $98,243
