About Florida Forever

Florida Forever, the state's landmark land conservation program, has made possible historic, on-the-ground conservation in every county and almost every part of Florida.

Today, however, Florida Forever is falling behind. With its limited funding, Florida Forever can not meet the most critical land conservation needs of our state.

• The $300 million invested in land conservation annually through Florida Forever has not increased in more than 19 years — during which time the cost of land has doubled and tripled in parts of our state.

• Florida Forever must be enhanced and increased in order to address the conservation, environmental and recreation challenges of today and tomorrow.

• While a long-term reauthorization of the Florida Forever Program (SB 542) is in effect, the borrowing possible under the Florida Forever Program must be appropriated each year by the Legislature.
