https://sciences.ucf.edu/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2021/03/President-Cartwright-Arboretum-Visit_10.16.20resize.jpg612408The continued development of the impressive landscapes in the Arboretum Park, the eight-acre property where our office currently sits, has been successfully lead in no small part by two of our Learning by Leading (LxL) teams: Urban Horticulture and Bee Campus USA/Pollinator. The Urban Horticulture team designed and installed an Instagram Hotspot near one of the main entrances to the park near the propagation and green houses. This is the area where Hank Whittier, Ph.D., the Arboretum’s founding director, installed a turnstile to capture the number of visitors to the site. This new landscape will be ready for Spring graduation photos, and we know many students will take advantage of the beautiful space. This team is also continuing the work on Whitter’s Walk Phase III, which we hope to complete in the Fall.
