The Nature Coast Chapter has a number of ongoing projects. Help out or stop by and visit.

Werner Boyce Salt Springs State Park is a pet project of our chapter. Visit and look for our education kiosk along the trail.

Starkey Park- This a partnership project with Starkey Park and the West Pasco Audubon Chapter. The Nature Coast Chapter volunteers help clean up unwanted and invasive vines so an education nature trail will be the focal point at the entrance kiosk.

Rick, at Starkey Park, has been a busy guy while the Park was closed to the public. Rick has cleared out a lot more and it's got some open space for plants. It's fairly shady and he wants to put some wildflowers by the path. Plant donations are welcome. For questions or if you have a plant you would like to donate, please contact the chapter at naturecoastfnps@gmail.com

Demonstration Garden at Heritage Park Community Center- This is a project in front of the meeting center. Our chapter has planted and maintains interesting native plants for everyone to enjoy. Stop by to see some native plants and maybe get ideas for your own garden.
