About this Event


Event Details

This month we will have Dr. Camille Lewis, one of those amazing “25 Women You Need to Know in 2026” that was featured in the Tallahassee Democrat earlier this spring. Dr. Lewis has combined her family’s agricultural legacy with a passion for education to inspire the next generation of environmental leaders. As Jefferson County’s Extension Director, founder of Brilliant Resilience, and organizer of Tallahassee’s Earth Day festival, she creates hands-on opportunities for youth—especially those from underserved communities—to explore nature, develop leadership skills, and learn about sustainability. Through research-based education, farming, and community partnerships, Lewis is cultivating not only healthy food systems but also confident young advocates who will help shape a more resilient future.
