Walking and Growing Together: An Invitation to the Azalea Park Community

The activity, titled “Walking and Growing Together: Nurturing Minds and Community,” seeks to bring families, neighbors, and community leaders together in a walk designed to share, enjoy nature, and reflect on the transformative power that trees and green spaces have on our health, well-being, and community life.

A Day to Grow in Community

The event will begin at 6:30 a.m. with coffee and community sharing. At 7:00 a.m., the walk will start and continue until 9:00 a.m. The route will be pet friendly, so families are encouraged to bring their pets and enjoy an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere.

The meeting point will be:
2451 Dean Rd, Union Park, FL, 32817.

Bosque Comunitario de Fe – Nuestros Bosques

This project is a community and environmental initiative that seeks to transform Azalea Park (zip codes 32807 and 32822) into a greener, healthier, and more resilient neighborhood. Between 2025 and 2027, our goals include:

• Planting 1,030 trees (oak and fruit trees).

• Conserving 150 existing trees.

• Hosting 120 educational workshops, including 12 dedicated to mental health.

• Training 45 community leaders as forest guardians.

• Positively impacting more than 6,000 households in the area.

This community walk is a symbolic first step in building an urban ecological corridor in Central Florida, connecting nature, community, and collective well-being.
