Get Rooted in Our Community with Arbor Day Celebrate Arbor Day by Planting Trees at Martha Wellman Park WHO:              Leon County and the City of Tallahassee WHAT:            Arbor Day Tree Planting WHEN:           Saturday, Jan. 25, at 9 a.m. WHERE:         Martha Wellman Park, 5317 W. Tennessee Street Leon County Government and the City of Tallahassee invite citizens to celebrate Arbor Day by planting trees at Martha Wellman Park, 5317 W. Tennessee Street, on Saturday, Jan. 25, at 9 a.m. This event is a fun opportunity for volunteers to reconnect with the earth while also strengthening the park’s habitat for the hundreds of native and migratory species that call Tallahassee-Leon County home, even if only for a season. This year, volunteers will help plant a diverse mix of native and pollinator species, including Profusion and Robinson Crabapple trees, pond cypress, eastern red cedar, serviceberry and American beech. Leon County and the City of Tallahassee have a long history of celebrating Arbor Day. Last year, hundreds of trees and shrubs were planted by volunteers of all ages at the City’s Lake Elberta Park. Volunteers are asked to dress for the weather and bring gloves, shovels, drinking water and friends. The event will take place rain or shine. No registration is necessary. For more information about the Arbor Day Tree Planting event, contact Mathieu Cavell, Leon County Community and Media Relations, at (850) 606-5300, or the City of Tallahassee Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Affairs Department at (850) 891-3866. ###

Discover stories from Florida State Parks.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR DIRECTOR It was a great year for Florida State Parks. Rangers, other staff and volunteers welcomed almost 30 million visitors to Florida’s best places. We are proud that Florida State Parks was recognized this year with a National Gold Medal for being America’s best state parks. I want to share a few other successes that helped define our year. First, thanks for your support. Visiting state parks helps us protect beloved park landscapes, wildlife and historic places. We’re also grateful for the investment of over one million hours by our 20,000 volunteers and dozens of friends’ groups. We worked hard to protect natural and cultural resources and saw successes worth celebrating. Silver Springs State Park just earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places, the shared list of places that define American history. We’re excited about the growing popularity of cultural events like the Florida Folk Festival. Park storytelling resonates and unites people from every walk of life. Preserving and restoring park landscapes depends on skilled, dedicated people. Working in difficult terrain, staff applied prescribed fire to a record area larger than Philadelphia. With help from the Florida Conservation Corps, staff and volunteers fought invasive exotic plants on 40,000 acres of park land, an area almost as big as Washington, D.C. This management has many benefits to wildlife such as gopher tortoises and Florida black bears. We’re also happy to celebrate a successful year for sea turtle nesting. State parks protect 108 miles of sandy beaches where turtle teams conduct surveys every day during nesting season. This has been a great season with over 8,000 nests recorded. This year, we hosted hundreds of Park Fit events including ranger-guided bike rides, yoga classes and 5K runs in partnership with local organizations. We now have 2,200 miles of both unpaved and paved multi-use trails that are favorite destinations for walking, running, cycling and strolling with family. We’re grateful to the Governor’s Office and the Legislature for passing budgets that invest in state parks. Thanks also to our staff who go to work every day thinking about how to do the best for Florida’s best places. Finally, thank you for being a park champion — you can visit and volunteer to help make 2020 even better Celebrate Florida State Parks' 85th Anniversary with us at your local park Eric Draper FEATURED STORIES State Parks Where You Can Get Active for the New Year We picked out some of the best Florida State Parks for fitness, including group classes, exercise trails and other great opportunities to get moving in the outdoors.

Teen Runs Seven Marathons in Seven Days for Springs On December 17, Charles Richardson set out to complete a “year-defining” journey by running 184 miles across Florida. Along the way, he visited four Florida State Parks to bring attention to springs protection.
