Planting Nassau's Future

The primary mission of Planting Nassau's Future is to beautify spaces in Nassau County, Florida. As the eastern gateway to the sunshine state, we want to preserve our beaches, green pastures, timberlands, and all the beautiful areas in-between. Weather events, age, and increasing development can impact these environments so we must start somewhere in order to make an impact for today and the future.

Four Easy Options to Get Involved

1. TreesDays

In spring and fall each year, Nassau County residents are invited to reserve free trees through our on-line reservation system. The announcement to reserve trees comes to members and newsletter recipients about 6 weeks before the events are held, usually in March and October.
