We’re helping this community transform the Robinson Preserve from farmland to native coastal habitat for all to enjoy.
Formerly disturbed farmland, the Robinson Preserve had the potential to be so much more. Community leaders had a new vision for the area—restore it to a natural state and create an oasis on the edge of suburbia for the community to enjoy and wildlife to thrive.
Our ecologists, landscape architects, and engineers helped Manatee County officials refine that vision. The next step? A plan to restore and create native habitats for tidal estuarine fish, rare coastal upland forests, and a high functioning coastal wetland system, including saltmarsh and mangrove forests. Restoration efforts improved water quality in the surrounding Manatee River, Perico Bayou, and Palma Sola Bay, and the native habitats supported nesting for multiple protected bird species as well as spawning waters for snook and tarpon.
On-site improvements designed by our teams include support facilities for an educational center, boardwalks, pedestrian bridges, parking, restrooms, age-specific thematic playgrounds, kayak and paddle trails, kayak storage facilities, and educational signage.
