We will grow seeds provided by Bok Tower Botanical Gardens and grow them in a classroom until the plants are large enough to survive on their own. Once they are large enough they will be planted at Boyd Hill Nature Preserve to become apart of another colony of Florida Golden Aster plants. This will be lead by Bethany Porcelli and Cady Coe at Boga Ciega High School!
