October is the last month of Turtle Nesting Season

October 15, 2019 by RebeccaLook Leave a Comment

It is neat to know that we share the beach with the amazing Sea Turtle! On Sanibel, Sea Turtle nest have increased 18% over last year!  That is great news.

John R. Wood Properties has adopted a nest thru Sanibel Captiva Conservation Foundation (SCCF) adopt a nest program.  SCCF does a fabulous job with Sea Turtles and let’s all get behind them

About Sanibel Captiva Conservation Foundation SCCF

Founded in 1967, SCCF (The Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation) is dedicated to the conservation of coastal habitats and aquatic resources on Sanibel and Captiva and in the surrounding watershed. From our earliest days, SCCF has been known as a land trust with an impressive acquisition record. The story of SCCF’s land conservation efforts spans almost five decades on the islands on Sanibel, Captiva, Buck Key, Albright, York, Coconut and the Long Cut preserve on Pine Island.

Today, SCCF is the largest private landowner on Sanibel Island. We manage more than 1,200 acres on Sanibel plus more than 600 additional acres on Captiva and other islands. SCCF also facilitated the acquisition and fundraising for an additional 470 acres currently managed by the State of Florida or the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. This environmental success story has been made possible by the generous support of conservationist donors and public sector partners, particularly the City of Sanibel and the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge.

Over the last 50 years SCCF program areas have grown to include Wildlife & Habitat Management, Sea Turtle Research and Monitoring, Environmental Education, Natural Resource Policy, our Marine Research Laboratory, and our Native Landscapes & Garden Center.

SCCF is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
