Barb J. Wyskowski is an Advanced Florida Master Naturalist, having completed all core courses as well as the Land Steward and Restoration courses in the University of Florida’s Master Naturalist program. She is also a Florida Friendly Landscaping Certified Professional. A landscape designer and native plant geek, Barb spends her days designing outdoor spaces that are specifically tailored to the unique characteristics and fluctuations of Florida’s dynamic ecosystems using design elements such as berms, swales and native grasses to enhance the natural water retention of the landscape and prevent erosion. By mimicking natural processes and incorporating sustainable landscaping practices, she creates resilient and biodiverse ecosystems that benefit both the environment and the local flora and fauna. She is a firm believer that scent is an important part of the landscape — just as important as color and texture.
