Join us for a special Members-Only wet walk at CREW Cypress Dome Trails. On this walk, we'll traverse a seasonal marsh, cypress dome, and pine flatwood, three wetland ecosystems that help replenish our aquifers - the source of Southwest Florida's drinking water. Together, we'll explore these unique ecosystems and discover just how important they are to our Southwest Florida community!
