What would Jupiter and Tequesta be without healthy waterways?
Tropical turquoise jewels attracting new residents and visitors in the thousands. Recreation, economy, coastal habitat and our own well-being are directly related to the well-being of the ocean, inlet, river and lagoon.
We're excited to announce that after many interruptions, rethinking, reworking and refocusing our strategies, Wildbluesea is relaunching with The Mangrove Project: our new community awareness initiative that began in August 2023 with rescuing and raising red mangrove propagules, followed by eco-art installations* of over 200 mangroves on local business windows to spark community conversation and will result in a group planting to restore the shoreline at Blowing Rocks Preserve on south Jupiter Island.
The Mangrove Project will be up through Spring 2024. Expect some fun events with our business partners. Coffee with the Mangroves? Yes, please. Sip and shop for the Mangroves? Great way to support local small businesses. Check back here for details or follow us on FB and IG for updates.
Please support our local business partners who are hosting mangrove displays to show they care about healthy waterways!
