Schedule of Events9 a.m. – 12 p.m. Horticulture Presentations in the Visitor Center Theatre 9:00 a.m.- 9:45 a.m. – Speaker: Josh Jamison from Cody Cove Farm – Fast-Growing Fruits for the Florida Home Garden Learn about important fruiting species that thrive in many Florida home garden settings. Many woody fruit trees take five or more years to come into full production. Fortunately, some productive fruit species bear fruit within a year, which can fill the void of fruit while we wait for slower-growing trees to mature. These fast-bearing plants play an essential role in tropical agroecological farming around the world and can be of service to Floridians as well. Josh owns Cody Cove Farm and Nursery in Babson Park, Florida, a small family farm specializing in unique edible crop genetics. The farm’s goal is to provide nutritious food to the community and promote sustainable agriculture through high-quality plants and produce. It focuses on collecting elite edible plant varieties from around the world and making them available to home gardeners, small farms, and beyond. 10:00 a.m.- 10:45 a.m. – Speaker: Taylor Walker – Growing Subtropical Fruits in Central Florida The unique microclimate of the Lake Wales Ridge in central Florida allows for the growth of many subtropical fruit species that cannot grow in most other locations in the country. Bok Tower Gardens Horticulture Manager and fruit aficionado, Taylor Walker, will introduce you to some exciting fruiting species that can be grown here. 11:00 a.m.- 11:45 a.m. Speaker: Raleigh Barnes – Edible Landscape Design with Third Insight DesignEdible landscaping replaces strictly ornamental plants with plants that produce food.
