ST LUCIE COUNTY ADAM’S RANCH TOUR:
AN INVITATION TO FLORIDA MASTER NATURALISTS

The University of Florida / St Lucie County Cooperative Extension, in conjunction with the Savannas State Preserve, has been granted special access to historic Adam’s Ranch in western St Lucie County.

Space is available on a first come, first served basis. Pre-reservations are required.

Adam’s Ranch began to take shape in South Florida in 1937.
