Florida Yards & Neighborhoods

I'm Fred Burkey, your Florida Yards and Neighborhoods tri-county agent. It is my goal to provide you with the best information available on horticulture, regional plant life and yard maintenance. Here you will also find times and locations on free lectures as well as our "Your Florida Yard" television program, which I host. If you have questions you can't find answers for, please don't hesitate to contact me at our local IFAS extension.
