SUMMARY:Bay Friendly Landscaping Workshop - on ZOOM
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to redesign your yard for resiliency with low maintenance native landscape plants. \n\n\n\n\n\nLearn to create a landscape that is beautiful and provides valuable ecosystem services in our Bay Friendly Landscaping class.

This class will be held on Zoom and the first 50 registrants who attend the class will be mailed a hard copy of the “Plant This\, Not That” flip book to the address provided during registration. The Zoom link will be sent the day before the class. \n>>> REGISTER HERE <<< \nPLEASE NOTE: There is no fee to attend this workshop. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact the UF/IFAS Extension Hillsborough County at (813) 744-5519. \n***The University of Florida is committed to providing universal access to all of our events.

SUMMARY:Why Snakes are Cool!
DESCRIPTION:Learn about Florida’s native snakes and get the chance to see some live animals up-close! \n\n\nDespite playing important ecological roles as both predators and prey\, snakes remain highly misunderstood vertebrates. Florida is home to 46 native species of snakes\, with most occuring in the central peninsula. And of those 46 species\, only four venomous species occur in central Florida and these snakes present little danger when left alone. Herpetologist and environmental educator George L. Heinrich will teach participants about why snakes are cool\, emphasizing Florida snake diversity\, natural history\, conservation\, and snake safety. \nAt the end of the program a selection of live snakes will be available for viewing and handling if participants choose to do so — and we hope that you will! \n>>> REGISTER HERE <<< \nGeorge L. Heinrich is a field biologist and environmental educator specializing in Florida reptiles. His company\, Heinrich Ecological Services\, is based in St. Petersburg\, Florida and conducts wildlife surveys and research\, natural history programming\, and nature-based tours.
