Bay Friendly Suggestion from Sarasota Bay Estuary Program
"SBEP reminds residents to use fertilizers with slow-release nitrogen for their lawn or flower beds during the Spring season. Slow-release products feed your lawn and plants gradually and for a longer period of time. They ultimately help reduce the flow of fertilizer chemicals into Sarasota Bay as a result of stormwater runoff. Another important Bay-friendly suggestion is not fertilizing during the summer months from June through September. "

Bay-friendly landscaping.: Sunbow Bay Open House March 24
Sarasota Bay Estuary Program has supported the project with Bay Partners Grants in
2010 and 2011. SBEP also provided technical assistance along with Michelle
Atkinson with the Florida Yards and Neighborhood Program and Jim Derwenko, a
green-certified landscaper. The key contact person at Sunbow Bay
is Denise Elliott and you can reach Ms. Elliott at dndelliott@gmail.com. Denise has
provided timely leadership in making Bay-friendly landscaping a priority at Sunbow Bay.
The public is invited to the open house and a local Girl Scout Troop from Bradenton will be on hand to sell water and lemonade to raise funds for a future camping trip. The Girl Scouts will also be visiting Sunbow Bay March 10 to do some volunteer work in the garden while learning more about Bay-friendly landscaping

FISH Partnership Award
Sarasota Bay Estuary Program received a FISH Partnership Award at
the recent Cortez Commercial Fishing Festival. The award acknowledged SBEP for
its ongoing support of the Florida Institute for Saltwater Heritage (FISH).
Dianne Rosensweig with Scheda Ecological Associates was also honored with a
FISH Partnership Award at the popular festival in Manatee County.
FISH is a non-profit organization that purchased a 95-acre
parcel adjacent to Sarasota Bay within the Village of Cortez
in 1999. Its mission is to help restore and protect the upland and wetland
habitats and adjacent waters. SBEP is supporting the ongoing restoration at
FISH Preserve.
