Donations to our programs promote connecting youth and adults with their natural environment
Each one of our programs has a special role in enhancing the human experience with this planet. We strive to provide local communities encounters with wildlife and assist with sharing information leading to ecosystem protection and management.
Sprouts of the Seas is a youth brand where we provide young minds environmental opportunities through our outdoor educational classrooms. Any support given to our mission provides educational interns the opportunities to grow in their career field by leading young people on environmental explorations.
Sea turtle night walks: Guests will learn about nesting sea turtles found on Brevard County beaches, the threats they face and what they can do to help protect them and when possible guests will also observe a nesting loggerhead sea turtle.
Sea turtle "nest digs": Public sea turtle nest inventories where nests are analyzed for how many hatchlings emerged or hatched to determine the status of sea turtle populations.
Hatchling sea turtle research: We perform a research study on the light environment and hatchling orientation in Brevard County, providing insight into lighting effects disrupting hatchlings during the most critical journey from nest emergence to the Atlantic ocean.
Eco and Science Explorations: An outdoor-based classroom with classes (explorations) connecting youth with their natural environment.
Wesley's Island Eco Camp: An immersive learning program in which youth are engaged in environmental studies, restoration and stewardship of the Indian River Lagoon, environmental knowledge, awareness of issues, and choices that can be made to reduce impacts on natural resources.
Stella's Aquanauts: A Mini-camp based in Brevard County to encourage our mission of bringing young people in better connection with the natural environment.
