GTM Research Reserve

The Friends of the GTM Research Reserve is a non-profit citizen organization supporting the GTM Research Reserve’s education, stewardship, and research. We accomplish this via volunteer initiatives, citizen involvement, and community partnerships.

Our 21,000 square foot Visitor Center includes interpretive exhibits, aquariums, classrooms, teaching and working laboratories, an auditorium and an outdoor amphitheater overlooking the Guana River Aquatic Preserve. Education staff offer programming for all ages on the importance of the estuary. Our Collaboration program offers training for professionals on issues of concern in our local community including watershed, invasive plants, and much more.
