Program areas at The Everglades Foundation

The Everglades Foundation, Inc. was founded in 1993 in response to a massive seagrass die-off in Florida Bay. Co-Founders George Barley and Paul Tudor Jones II engaged scientists from the outset and quickly discovered the seagrass die-off in their back yard was linked to a much larger water program that spanned more than 200 miles, from Orlando to the Florida Keys, and encompassed both coasts, from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Shores.
