A former cattle ranch to a promising natural area…
January mornings in Florida are often too cold for comfort. So this adventure will begin at noon with a BYO lunch on the porch of the museum (former Ellis home) at Ellis Acres Reserve in Paisley. Peg will supply the dessert.
While we enjoy our lunch, naturalist and wildflower enthusiast Wendy Poag will tell us about the history of the property. The birding and wildflower gardens around the former homestead are awesome. Following lunch, we can walk the property at our leisure. Depending on her time availability, Wendy may lead those who are interested on a short hike around the property to educate us on the challenges and rewards of converting a former cattle ranch into a natural area.
