Duval Audubon Society is partnering with St. Johns Riverkeeper and the City of Jacksonville to do monthly cleanups in the Jacksonville area, and this month’s cleanup will be at Sheffield Regional Park.
Sheffield Regional Park is about 385 acres with nature trails and several lakes. There are open fields, wooded areas, and multiple lakes and ponds, and with so many different habitats, it is a haven for many different species of birds and other wildlife.
In honor of Mother's Day, our theme for this event will be "Taking Care of Mother Earth." Let's honor our Mother Earth and help prevent trash from entering our waterways and endangering our beloved wildlife.
Wear clothes that can get dirty and boots or close-toed shoes (for your safety, no sandals or flip-flops, please). Bags, gloves, and grabbers will be provided.
What to bring:
- Water
- Sunscreen
- Bug spray
- Heavy-duty gloves if you have them
PLEASE NOTE: If you are under 18, you MUST bring a waiver form signed by your parent. You can download the form at
