Who Are The Eco-Teers?

The Eco-teers are a Flamingo Gardens volunteer outreach group that support habitat protection, coastal resilience, and environmental projects in Broward County, and provide climate change and environmental education to residents and visitors.

The Eco-teers plan and implement monthly projects which include, but are not limited to:

Hardwood tree plantings to help capture carbon dioxide to counteract rising temperatures and clean our air while also providing additional greenery to our communities.
Mangroves and other coastal vegetation planting to help capture carbon dioxide, improve marine habitat, reduce beach erosion and help protect communities from flooding.
Waterway and shoreline clean-up to help improve marine/aquatic habitats and improve cleanliness of our communities.

Twice-monthly meetings include an educational/social meeting and an off-site project day.

Requirements:

Eco-teer application and approval from Volunteer department
Minimum quarterly project commitment
$20 t-shirt purchase
Age 15 and up

The first meeting of every month will be held at Flamingo Gardens while the second meeting of the month will be held off-site. The location will depend on the topic of the assigned project for that month.
