💚 Making a difference starts with making an impact.
While in town for a conference, the stryker team took time to give back at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park. Their mission to improve lives goes beyond healthcare, and their volunteer efforts are a great example of how small actions can make a big difference for our community and our planet. 🌎🌿
Even a small team can make a big impact! Thank you, Stryker, for helping us keep Birch beautiful. We appreciate your support!

Early rise and shine…🌅
There’s something special about watching a new day begin at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park, right across from the beach. 🌊
180 acres of natural beauty, peaceful trails, a freshwater lake, mangroves, and wildlife — right here in our own backyard🌿
Sometimes, we just need a little reminder of how lucky we are to have this place. 💚
Where time stands still.

🌊 KING TIDES ARE COMING
Presented by Mother Nature 🌿

October 7-13th, we’ll be experiencing King Tides at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park — and Mother Nature may be bringing a little extra water our way!
If you’re visiting the park, you may see water coming up and over the sides of the road, especially along the Intracoastal. 🌊
🚧 Please be prepared for possible temporary road closures or limited access depending on water levels. Use caution, allow a little extra time, before heading to the park. 😉

🌿What if we could all do a little more to keep Birch beautiful?🌿
Friends of Birch State Park is a nonprofit organization that helps provide the resources needed to care for Hugh Taylor Birch State Park’s 180 acres of green space as Fort Lauderdale continues to grow.
We do that through private donations, grants, corporate sponsorships and community support—and Walk with Friends is one of the fun ways we bring our community together to help. 💚

He’s back! 🌿

Last year, we shared this beautiful moment at Birch — and here he is again, enjoying the peace and beauty of the park.

Where time stands still.

It’s moments like these that remind us why this place matters — and why we work to Preserve. Conserve. Enhance. Promote.

So Birch can continue to be a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and create memories for generations to come. 💚

Last week, Hugh Taylor Birch State Park was proud to serve as the host park for the District 5 CSO Meeting! 🌿
We welcomed representatives from seven Friends groups, along with their Park Managers and District staff, for a day of connection, collaboration and learning. Together, we discussed shared concerns, worked through individual challenges, exchanged ideas and received important department updates.
One of the greatest benefits of our CSO network is the opportunity to learn from one another and share ideas that help strengthen our parks and the communities we serve.
A special thank you to Heather Geronemus , Vice President of Belonging & Impact at UKG and Friends of Birch Board Member, for leading a great conversation on developing corporate partnerships and, just as importantly, how to grow and strengthen those relationships over time.
Thank you to everyone who joined us at Birch! We loved having the opportunity to host our fellow Friends groups and park partners. 💚🌴
