One of our favorite parts of the day was visiting with Rep @AllisonTantFL - champion in the #FloridaHouse for #4H and Camp Cherry Lake 🍀
Fantastic to have our 4-H Youth engaging in civics though #FL4HLEG. Impressed with the delegation this year. Welcome to the Florida Capitol!
#4H alumnus Steven Hall, General Counsel for @FDACS, welcomed #Florida4H'ers to the Capitol for #FL4HLEG. We appreciate the loyal support of the FDACS team and Commissioner Wilton Simpson helping to grow the next generation of leaders. 🍀

#Florida vanilla! Yes, please. Extract made from vanilla grown at @UFTropical, smells wonderful and inspires visitors to our #GatorDay display.

It is @uf day, after all, so it should be pointed out @UF_IFAS is one of the best “under the radar” departments at UF. Few understand or recognize the revolutionary and innovative work they do, day in and day out, to make life a little better, for all. #GatorDay
.@UF blueberry varieties helped birth an industry in the 70s, and now @freshfromFL blueberries are synonymous with the start of spring.
Listen 👂 to @the_FBGA farmers explain how @BBerryBreeding is just as important to the industry today.
