Nestled in suburban South Florida next to Biscayne Bay and on the limestone Miami rock ridge, Deering Estate's Cultural and Ecological Field Station is protecting habitats, geological and archeological resources, historic museums homes, the Cutler Slough Rehydration Project, and support infrastructures like classrooms, research facilities, and outdoor labs. As an added bonus, our field station also offers short-term overnight accommodations to visiting artists, researchers, faculty, and academia conducting research or other study projects at the Deering Estate. The Deering Estate provides living laboratory for students, educators, and the general public who are interested in the interactions between our natural and built environments, society and nature, conservation and preservation.
