Location

We're located in East Orlando, just 6.5 miles east of Alafaya Trail on SR 50 (also known as East Colonial Drive.)

Coming from Orlando on Colonial, we are located on the left side of the road, right next to Shaw's Auto Repair. (Look for the green fence!).

  Our address is:
18515 East Colonial Dr.
Orlando, FL 32820

  We take our Gopher Tortoises out to a local field where we can feed them on a native diet and give them time in the sun. As soon as these four touched the ground they started eating. It was like a tiny herd of cows. About a half hour later they stopped and went into the shade.
