Many of the museum and visitor center stores we traditionally sell our earrings are closed but there are some that are open. Last week we visited two places located just a couple hours away from us here in Bellefonte PA. See our previous post for details. In the next few days we will write about a few more we know of because they recently ordered earrings from us.
Today I’ll introduce you to the Ann Kolb Nature Center located on the intracoastal between Miami and Ft Lauderdale. I visited once several years ago and found an oasis of mangrove and native vegetation on this highly urbanized coast. I learned about the endangered Atala butterfly here and it’s dependence on the native Coonti plant. Even in urban areas, the butterfly can still be found where people plant natives in their landscapes.
The visitor center at Ann Kolb place a satisfyingly large order for us in the middle of May, during the darkest of days, giving us work! I wish the best for Florida’s southeast coast and That people stay safe as the pandemic surges in that area.
your comments are welcome and if you have a favorite location you are welcome to tell us about them. If they have a gift shop where our earrings would fit in well we would love to know about it.
