Raised Beds for the Florida Garden
October is the best month to plant a garden in Florida. Vegetables thrive in our mild winter weather. All you need is a spot that gets plenty of sun for most of the day.
Cracking a Coconut
One coconut palm produces about 75 coconuts every year. The majority of coconuts in my neighborhood end up in a pile of yard waste by the street.
Bok Tower Gardens
There are lots of attractions in central Florida where you can pretend to be somewhere else, but if you’d like to experience the natural beauty of Florida, forgo the theme parks and visit Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales.
