The Miami Blue Chapter of NABA will be holding their 3rd Quarterly Meeting of 2023 on Sunday, August 6th, from 1:00 to 3:00 pm, and will be held at The Deering Estate. A social gathering begins at 12:30 pm, and the program and zoom meeting begins at 1:00 pm.
Our guest speaker will be Roger L. Hammer, whose presentation will be “Pine Rocklands – A Globally Imperiled Plant Community”
Brief abstract: Pine Rocklands once covered the Miami Rock Ridge but development and agriculture have reduced the original 185,000 acres in southern Miami-Dade County to less than 2% of its original coverage. This program focuses on the plants that make up this important plant community, and the wildlife they support.
Roger will also have his books available for purchase (cash or check only).
This meeting will be in-person and also live-streamed via Zoom. Please see below for details on how to JOIN VIA ZOOM or for the IN PERSON VENUE.
Contributions of finger food and soft drinks for the refreshments table will be appreciated by all.
