SUMMARY:FIELD TRIP - Nixon Smiley Pineland EEL Preserve 
DESCRIPTION:Nixon Smiley Pineland EEL Preserve\, Miami (Three Lakes) \n\n\n\n\n\nWhorled milkweed (Asclepias verticillata) by Emily Bell\n\n\n\nThis field trip is sold out. Please email Rose Kinane if you want to be added to the waiting list. \n\n\n\nFlorida Wildflower Foundation members can register for field trips before the general public. Become a Florida Wildflower Foundation member today for early access! \n\n\n\nJoin us for a guided walk led by Miami-Dade County’s Environmentally Endangered Lands (EEL) Program and Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden through the Nixon Smiley Pineland Preserve\, a rare pine rockland habitat with elements of marl prairie. This site is home to an incredible diversity of native plants and pollinators\, including locally rare species such as Whorled milkweed (Asclepias verticillata)\, Giant orchid (Orthochilus ecristatus) and Carolina scalystem (Elytraria caroliniensis var. angustifolia). \n\n\n\nThe preserve has no maintained trails\, so expect an off-trail adventure along a service road and through natural areas. This is a unique opportunity to experience one of South Florida’s most endangered ecosystems up close.  \n\n\n\nTrip details will be emailed a few days before departure\, including a carpool meet-up location. Carpooling is encouraged to limit the number of vehicles at the site. \n\n\n\nRegistration is free for Florida Wildflower Foundation members and $10 for non-members. Email Rose Kinane to find out if your membership is current or needs to be renewed. To join as a member\, visit www.FlaWildflowers.org/membership.
