Calling all interested Florida Master Naturalists and interested members of the public!  We need your help.

Do you want to learn about native groundcovers that will benefit native pollinators and birds?  This might be the perfect opportunity.  Florida Master Naturalist Diane Goldberg will be presenting “Native Groundcovers for Birds and Pollinators” on December 6, 2023 from 10 AM – 11:30 AM.  This event will be conducted at Indian River State College as part of their continuing education program located at 500 NW California Blvd, Port St Lucie, Building E, room 210
