Episode Synopsis

This month on Cultivating Curiosity, we explore how the University of North Florida is redefining what it means to be a campus. Horticulturist Rhonda Gracie shares how UNF became a botanical garden that inspires learning, supports research, and fosters community engagement. From award-winning gardens to volunteer-powered projects and even a “hort therapy” program tied to the largest collection of Crinum Lilies, this is a story of how nature can transform both people and place.ResourcesUNF Botanical Garden Webpage: https://www.unf.edu/botanical-garden/index.htmlUpcoming Events: https://www.unf.edu/botanical-garden/Events.html
