Ridge to River

The Ridge to River Conservation Plan is a community-based study to establish a conservation program that will guide the protection of our natural resources, reflect the environmental conservation values of the community, and lay out a financial path for achieving said conservation goals and objectives. Highlands County has contracted the North Florida Land Trust to help develop the program. To learn more please visit the links below.
