Went on a nursery safari down State Road 997 (Krome Ave) into Homestead. This hopefully will be the first of several journeys into the area. It is at the tip of the Florida peninsula and hosts fruit trees / plants that cannot be grown anywhere else in the country. We visited a few nurseries along the highway and neither the plant selection nor pricing would bring me back (the pots were expensive too). However, seeing this agricultural land is a must. Acres of papaya, banana, mango trees-- The Fruit and Spice Park, the Coral Castle, Richard Lyons Nursery are in the area. More time is needed to visit these special places. More Later.
