Volunteer opportunity!
Help us brighten up the beautiful Florida Friendly Landscape Demonstration Garden at Seminole IFAS Extension!
Aside from having beautiful native plants, this is an excellent outdoor, hands-on learning opportunity with Florida native plants! Here are some key highlights about gardening with native plants:
**Environmental Benefits** Native plants are adapted to local conditions, requiring less water, fertilizer, and pesticides. They also provide essential habitat and food sources for native wildlife, supporting biodiversity.
**Low Maintenance** Once established, native plants generally require less maintenance than non-native species, as they are naturally suited to the local climate and soil.
**Cultural Significance** Native plants can connect us to the history and culture of our region, representing a unique sense of place.
**Aesthetic Appeal** Native plants offer a diverse range of colors, textures, and forms, creating beautiful and sustainable landscapes.
Bring: Shovel, Trowel, Gloves, Hat, Sunscreen, Water, and Snack
