About us
Welcome, Florida adventurers and explorers far and wide! There is so much in Florida to enjoy, learn, and explore!
We have many different events and trips: hiking, biking, kayaking, and camping throughout the year all over Florida. Some are guided events by ecologists, along with talks and discussions. Join us today
FIELD TRIPS LAND & WATER
Take a journey into Florida's natural surroundings. We want you to become empowered about environmental issues in Florida. Our field trips (guided by FEFF volunteers and members) will show how Florida's biodiversity works. We hope they inspire and engage in a lifestyle change that benefits the environment so that Florida's Gulf Coast remains a viable place to live for generations.
Outings are generally free; you are to pay fees that may involve rentals (kayaks/bikes) or park entrance fees.
LAND AND WATERSHED CLEANUPS
Land & Watershed Cleanup is a volunteer cleanup program facilitating "hands-on" participation in managing Florida land and lakes, rivers, and coastal sites. Participants will be trained & coordinated through FEFF.
We will work with other local environmental organizations. All trash from the cleanups will be taken to collection sites every month.
######
BOOK CIRCLE CONVERSATIONS
We highlight a book, then another, and another. Our event will be hosted and virtual.
It's about reading and sharing your finds with a circle of people (make friends and invite friends) with a craving for conversations (like-minded or not) to learn, understand, and nourish Florida's uniqueness through books.
It's about having a dialogue about the climate crisis we are all facing worldwide. We all need to feel heard, express ourselves, learn, and share. We all need to feel empowered by each other. It takes a village; here, at FEFF, it starts with a circle. Join us.
ENVIRONMENTAL FILMS FESTIVALS & DISCUSSIONS
These environmental films and discussions would advance the education of these communities with knowledge on environmental issues and viable enhancements regarding the Florida weather, its open land, wildlife, and waters — the very reasons we all live here.
We're an environmental-enthusiast non-profit called Florida Environmental Film Festival (FEFF), hosting events on various outdoor and environmental topics. We advocate for broadening knowledge of Florida's amazing environment—all of Florida's beautiful wildlife, wilderness, and coastal areas. You can join us in person or at one of our virtual festivals on the events page and online at www.thefeff.org.
The Florida Environmental Film Festival is a 501 (c)(3) A Not-For-Profit Tax-Exempt Florida Corporation.
