🐝🌼 Spring is buzzing at SJRWMD!

As flowers bloom across our conservation lands, bees get to work — and these tiny pollinators play a huge role in keeping Florida’s ecosystems healthy. 🌸

Here’s why bees matter on District lands:
• 🌼 They pollinate wildflowers and native plants
• 🌳 They help support healthy habitats for wildlife
• 🍃 They boost plant diversity across wetlands, marshes & forests
• 💧 And they’re part of the natural balance we work hard to protect

Next time you’re exploring our free public lands, keep an eye out for these busy little helpers (from a safe distance, of course!). 💛

Burrell Lock is temporarily closed due to a warped miter gate and a leaking seal identified during ongoing operational testing. District staff are actively assessing both issues and working with the contractor to determine the necessary repairs to restore safe and reliable operations. At this time, a reopening timeframe has not been established.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this causes and understand the disruption this may have on those who rely on the lock. We appreciate the public’s patience as we work to address these issues and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
