Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park (B)
Explanation
With over a third of a million visitors per year, Paynes Prairie is important to the community both for quality of life and economic reasons. Alachua Sink is a major recharge point for water to return to the Floridan Aquifer, the principal source of our drinking water.  Learn about our goals to restore and protect this important natural and cultural area, the Preserve's wildlife and plant diversity, the abundant recreation and program options available, and how community support, outreach, and education have grown substantially over the past three years.
