Discover the Story of Koreshan State Park
Step into the fascinating and eclectic history of Koreshan State Park—a place shaped by vision, community, and preservation. In the 1960s, the founders of the Koreshan Unity generously donated 200 acres to the Florida Park Service, ensuring that this unique cultural settlement would be protected and shared with future generations.
As a Tour Guide, you’ll bring this history to life. Volunteers learn about the people, buildings, and beliefs that defined the settlement, then share those stories through engaging 90-minute walking tours. These tours not only educate visitors but also serve as an important fundraiser—each $10 ticket directly supports the preservation and restoration of the park.
Tours are scheduled based on volunteer availability, making this a flexible and rewarding opportunity to contribute when it works for you.
