🌳 The cypress tree — featured in our logo — has always stood tall as a symbol of resilience and sustainability. These incredible trees filter water 💧, stabilize shorelines, and provide vital wildlife habitat 🐦.
In the photo below, the tree on the left dates back to the 1950s, and the one on the right stands in our present-day environment. It's a powerful visual of how much our ecosystems can change over time.
At the St. Johns River Water Management District, our mission is to protect natural resources and support Florida’s growth by ensuring the sustainable use of water — not just for today, but for future generations. 🌱🌊
Together, we’re working to keep Florida’s waterways and wetlands healthy and thriving.
