Natural resources are abundant in Florida, but it’s not always possible to go out and explore in person. UF/IFAS is offering a variety of virtual programs (webinars, Facebook live, podcasts) to share science-based information with you in the comfort of your home or office. These programs are free and open to anyone (unless otherwise noted), and can be “attended” from anywhere with only a computer/smartphone and internet connection:
