Spring(s) Into Fashion: A One-of-a-Kind Event Merging Art, Conservation, and Adventure

At Get Up And Go Kayaking – Merritt’s Mill, we’re passionate about more than just offering clear kayak tours, we’re committed to protecting the beautiful Florida springs we explore every day. That’s why we teamed up with the Florida Springs Council to host Spring(s) Into Fashion at Legacy at the Riverfront in Tallahassee, Florida. This eco-conscious fashion show blended sustainability, creativity, and conservation to raise awareness about the challenges facing Florida’s fragile spring ecosystems.
A Fashion Show with an Environmental Message
Spring(s) Into Fashion wasn’t just about stunning designs—it was about making an impact. Each outfit showcased was crafted from recycled materials and trash collected from Florida’s springs, turning pollution into powerful statements about conservation. Designs highlighted critical issues such as fertilizer runoff, overpumping, and invasive species, showing how human actions directly affect the health of our waterways.
Our partnership with the Florida Springs Council, a leading advocate for Florida’s freshwater resources, helped spread awareness and inspire action. Attendees had the chance to learn more about spring conservation efforts and how they can help protect these natural wonders for future generations.
To make the event even more exciting, we held a special giveaway for free clear kayak tours at some of Florida’s most breathtaking locations! These tours were generously donated by:
🚣 Get Up And Go Kayaking – Rock Springs
🚣 Get Up And Go Kayaking – Titusville
Guests entered by visiting our booth, scanning a QR code, and filling out a short survey. Not only did this encourage participation, but it also helped us gather valuable insights on public awareness and engagement in conservation.
