Memorial day weekend is perfect for visiting the great outdoors and all that Florida has to offer!
This Memorial Day weekend, take advantage of free admission to Florida’s State and National Parks. Spend time immersed in the landscapes that define our state. Choose your adventure by exploring sawgrass marshes and coastal dunes, pine flatwoods or subtropical forests.
As you explore, slow down and observe the native plants that thrive without additional inputs. These ecosystems support birds, pollinators, and wildlife while offering something just as important for people: space to breathe, reset, and reflect.
Let what you see inspire what you grow. By choosing diverse, Florida‑Friendly plants at home you can boost backyard biodiversity, conserve resources, and create outdoor spaces that support both environmental health and personal wellbeing.
