About Me

Fresh Start Sarasota: Sarasota , FL, United States; We are a volunteer group seeking to optimize public lands at the doorway to East Sarasota County. We believe there are higher and better uses for these lands near the Celery Fields Preserve, an eco-tourist mecca for birders and recreation, than industry.
