FNPS Tallahassee Regional Field Days
The annual conference of the Florida Native Plant Society was still virtual in 2023 but it was followed in the next month by three in-person Regional Field Days held in widely distributed places with participants invited from the entire state. Sarracenia teamed up with the Magnolia and Sweetbay Chapters to produce the two-day Tallahassee Field Days. The theme was Restoration. Participants chose two field trips (with field lunch included) from four organized: Spring Canyon restoration in Gadsden County; Tall Timbers Research Station in Leon; Apalachicola Lowlands restoration tract (Coastal Plains Institute) in Liberty, and Apalachicola Nat. Forest sites in Liberty and Franklin. Everyone could attend a session of presentations and panel discussion held at the IFAS Research station at Quincy.
