2021 Map of Jones Hammock

About this map

Dark Hammock and Jones Hammock anchor this interior Florida landscape at the boundary of Saint Lucie and Okeechobee counties. The area is defined by a complex network of wetlands and drainage, featuring the eastward flow of Cypress Cr and the southerly course of Nubbin Slough. A distinct grid of rural roads, including Berman Rd and Starns Loop Rd, overlays the terrain, reflecting the agricultural and ranching heritage of the region. The Citrus Hedging Ranch Airport stands as a notable landmark, indicating the importance of aviation in managing these large agricultural holdings. This survey captures a transition point where the cultivated citrus groves meet the native Florida hammocks and sloughs, connected by major thoroughfares like Okeechobee Rd and Bluefield Rd.
