Join friends of North Florida Land Trust for the Salty Soirée, an evening to celebrate and support NFLT’s mission to conserve and protect North Florida’s natural landscapes and environment. We’ll be honoring the extraordinary donation of 388 acres of pristine land adjacent to Fort Clinch State Park, gifted by Jack and Kathleen Thornton and creating a lasting legacy for future generations.

Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres donated by local restaurants, shrimp boil and oyster roast by the Crawfish Man, live music by Kellie Parr and Her SideCars, and the most incredible views from Amelia Island’s most beautiful beach!
