About this Event

In support of our summer reading theme of “Unearth a Story,” we will be traveling to Brooker Creek to learn more about the history of Florida's Flora!

Register at eastlake.librarycalendar.com.

Over millions of years Florida’s geology and plant communities have undergone a myriad of changes. Driven by evolution, continental drift, ice ages and many more environmental pressures, today’s native plant communities are just a snapshot of the rich diversity spanning millennia. Let’s gently explore a simplified timeline of the events that lead to today’s Florida Native Plants.

Presented by James Stevenson, Education and Outreach Specialist

Additional Notes: This program will be held in the Brooker Creek Preserve auditorium. It takes about 10 minutes to drive from the preserve entrance (Keystone Rd.) to the parking lot, and there is a 2-5 minute walk from the parking lot to the auditorium.

This program does not take place at East Lake Community Library. We will be meeting at Brooker Creek Preserve in the auditorium.

Please register! Thank you.
