    Estero's River Oaks Preserve
    9541 Broadway Ave E, Estero, FL 33928

    "Estero’s River Oaks Preserve is a passive recreational area with a strong focus on concepts of simplicity, natural/native care of the land, #sustainability, and being 'one with nature.' This property will expose visitors to a lesser-known side of Florida – one with shiny blueberries, #hogplums, #GopherApple, #ButterflyMilkweed and where the gopher tortoises live.​

    This Project is a partnership between the Coccoloba Chapter of the Florida #NativePlant Society and the Village of #Estero. Support includes USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, #Audubon of Southwest #Florida and others.

    Volunteer hours are Sundays and Tuesdays from 9-1. Come check us out!

    Throughout the property, you will find:

    - cabbage palm (Sabal palmetto)
    - common fanpetals (Sida ulmifolia)
    - common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia)
    - kiss-me-quick (Portulaca pilosa)
    - laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia)
    - live oak (Quercus virginiana)
    - Poor-man's-pepper (Lepidium virginicum)
    - southern river sage (Salvia misella)
    - Spanish needles (Bidens alba)
    - tropical sage (Salvia coccinea)
    - whitemouth dayflower (Commelina erecta) "
