Fruit and Spice Park, Florida City

My 3rd stop today was a true gem…Fruit and Spice Park in Florida City, about an hour’s drive south of downtown Miami.

I was greeted by April Rosenick, Sales Manager. After our meeting I was given a wonderful tour of the 35-acre park by guide Iva. The park was essentially destroyed by hurricane Andrew, and has since been restored with a master plan featuring hundreds of specimens of plants and trees from around the world.

The park is one of those places that will surprise you in its quality of presentation and mission, and a staff obviously dedicated to fulfilling the Park’s mission.

After my tour, I met Chris Rollins, the Park Manager.
