"Well our 10th Annual Back to Nature Festival has come & gone. After all of the hard work, the payoff could be seen in the faces of friends, family and neighbors, enjoying the Adventures that were brought to life. Whether it was the common unity of experiencing a night in the Backyard of Love for our Opening Night Party, the kids Exploring at Grayton Beach State Park, enjoying an Outdoor Adventure or Celebrating Nature and Community at Seaside, I think it's safe to say that fun was had by all!

Now it's back to work, protecting what you enjoy

every day in South Walton. If you enjoyed Back to Nature, please join us by becoming a member today. You need us & we need your support!" Join Today!
