Beyond the Beach: Protecting Sarasota County’s Parks, Preserves and Natural Lands
What does it take to protect the natural spaces that make Sarasota County such a special place to live, work and play? In this episode of Beyond the Beach, we sit down with Brie Ondercin and Hannah Turbiville from Sarasota County Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources to talk about the county’s land acquisition programs and how they help protect environmentally sensitive lands, expand parks and create opportunities for recreation. From Red Bug Slough Preserve and Deer Prairie Creek to Osprey Junction Trailhead and Beach Access 7, these programs have helped protect thousands of acres while creating places for residents and visitors to hike, bike, kayak, fish, explore and connect with nature. Listen to the latest episode of Beyond the Beach to learn more about the land behind some of Sarasota County’s most-loved outdoor spaces. Learn more at SarasotaCountyParks.com/LandAcquisitions
