Welcome to the Conch Republic Marine Army.
A grassroots, volunteer organization dedicated to the cleanup and restoration of the mangrove habitats of the Florida Keys.
We run weekly volunteer trips out of 2 locations, Marathon on Wednesday and Saturday and Stock Island/Key West on Saturday’s. Each trip has everything provided to return home with hundreds if not thousands of pounds in a single trip.
Since the CRMA’s start in 2017 more than 5,000 volunteers have offered their time and passion cleaning up the mangroves.
As of December 31, 2024 the CRMA and its volunteers have collected: 551,000 pounds of debris. That’s 250 tons! That includes 3,000,000 feet of trap line removed from the mangroves (that’s 568 miles) and 99 refrigerators!
Please keep reading on how you can help, and then head over to our Facebook community to join in!
