Did you know that the Florida Coalition for Peace and Justice is one of the closest destination locations to the halfway point of the 1,500-mile-long Florida Trail? At less than two miles from the Trail, FCPJ is now recognized as a gateway community by the Florida Trail Association. Stop by to visit on your next hike.
FCPJ is expanding their hosting to more youth groups in 2022. Their Peace Education Center is available for retreats and gatherings at a reasonable rate. With the facility, groups enjoy the peaceful 15-acre rural sanctuary in Bradford County. Call 352-247-7142 for rates and availability.
Spring is starting to blossom and FCPJ is actively seeking partners to join as they expand their gardens and educational efforts to support growing local food. If you like to get your hands dirty, get in touch with them and explore ways to grow a brighter future.
Mark your calendars for the return of the FCPJ May Day event. Join them for another open house celebration the first Sunday in May as they honor the earth and come together in harmony around community conversations that matter. Find them online at <www.Florida4Peace.org> or email them at Florida4Peace@gmail.com to connect or inquire about participation.
