Sanford, County seat of Seminole County in Central Florida, United States

Sanford extends along the southern shore of Lake Monroe where the St. Johns River begins its northward flow through Florida.

The city emerged from a military installation called Camp Monroe, established in 1836 during the Second Seminole War in Florida.

The Central Florida Zoo and Botanical Gardens presents native Florida species and international wildlife through educational programs and exhibits.

The Orlando Sanford International Airport connects the region with domestic and international destinations through multiple passenger terminals.

Sanford earned the title Celery City during the 1890s when local agriculture shifted from citrus cultivation to extensive celery production.
