Time: 6:30 pm til 8:00 pm
Location: Plantation Heritage Park - Fountain Room
Description: Michele Williams, Ph.D., RPA is the Director for the Southeastern and Southwest Regions of Florida Public Archaeology Network at Florida Atlantic University. Dr. Williams has participated in excavations throughout the southeastern United States for the past 25 years.
What does an archeologist have to teach us about plants, you ask? Well, Dr. Williams will be speaking to us about her specialty within archaeology - the historical relevance of medicinal plants dating all the way back to the times of prehistoric Native Americans and up to the South Florida gardens we nurture and enjoy today.
Bring along a tasty plate to share, jot down any questions you'd like to ask Dr. Williams at the conclusion of her presentation and head over to Plantation Heritage Park's Fountain Room to learn something new about this very popular and intriguing subject. Doors open at 6:30, we'll begin promptly at 7pm and then wrap up the evening with our beloved plant raffle.
Look forward to seeing you there!
