Welcome to the Sarasota Audubon Society!
An extremely active chapter with numerous trips and projects to engage you: monthly meetings with fascinating speakers, day trips, national and international trips, road and park clean ups, and nature walks for kids and adults. Please visit us at the Sarasota Audubon Nature Center. Our signature conservation project is the Beach Nesting Bird Program in which volunteers monitor Snowy Plovers, Least Terns and Black Skimmers as they struggle to survive on our busy beaches. We also have a scholarship program for high schoolers who will be studying environmental sciences in college.
Raymond Road Farm
The Sarasota County Commission voted unanimously on February 12th to deny the Rezone requested by D.R. Horton for a 126-home development. Commissioners all commented on what a “gem” the Celery Fields is and that no harm should be done to this habitat. The property is currently zoned for 10 homes, so it could still be developed. We must remain vigilant.
I would like to thank everyone for the incredible effort that went into the County Commission meeting.
Everyone who volunteers with us contributed by answering questions, providing information, writing letters, showing up to either support or speak. We represented Audubon proudly and it paid off!!!
Together we can move mountains… Thank you!
