Cultivating a Community with a Healthy Glow

With 44 planned miles of trails, sponsored events like RUNNONA and the ADA Tour de Cure, and community gardens, residents can’t help but enjoy natural, healthy living.

In 2010, the Lake Nona Institute was created to “incubate, activate and measure the impact of innovative technologies and programs that can become global models for building healthy, sustainable and inspired communities.”
