Enjoy three videos designed to spark community conversations about how we can build a water ethic that will enable us to restore, preserve and protect the Ichetucknee River System, including all of the river’s associated springs and the Floridan aquifer that feeds the springs and provides our drinking water. Many thanks to Three Rivers Trust and to David and Christina Flagg for funding support for these videos.

“We create the Ichetucknee of tomorrow through the actions we choose to take today.”

It is possible to help the springs. Join working groups, donate to the friends of the springs, make a loud and persistent voice for protecting the springs. Refuse to be silenced! … Map your own AQUIFERious world. Draw underwater, write, take photos, make art, explore and be inspired by the energy of the springs … Enter the springs—a joyful place and an incredible experience.

Margaret Ross Tolbert

“may the wind deal kindly with us
may the fire remember our names
may springs flow, rain fall again
may the land grow green, may it swallow our mistakes.

Diane Di Prima, from Life Chant

” I’d like enough of natural Florida to survive that we will always be able to see, feel, and taste the real thing.”
