Plant Communities of the Florida Panhandle

Date:Held approximately every two to three years
Location:
University of Florida, Milton and Marianna

From fire to hydrology to the plants and animals that make up each community, this workshop will guide you through Florida's natural communities with a specific focus on the unique plant communities of the Florida Panhandle.

Participants will learn to:

  • Identify the different plant communities in Florida
  • Recognize the natural forces that control these communities
  • Recognize key indicator plant species for each community
  • Determine management actions needed to maintain selected communities.

"The Florida Natural Communities workshop I attended was excellent. I highly recommend it for field biologists, not only for those who are new to Florida and its unique ecosystems, but for those of us who have lived and worked here for many years."
- Jim Garrison – FWC
