One end is another beginning

Due to the construction of Eckerd's new science building an underground drainage pipe and an underground power line need to be installed on campus. Unfortunately these two trenches will be dug right through Eckerd's current native plants garden. On the bright side Eckerd is finally going to install the native butterfly garden already envisioned in the campus master plan. The garden will be located along the back of the freshman parking lot south of the pool and parking lot. The gardens close proximity to and boarder along the Palm Hammocks should allow seeds to spread into the palm hammocks increasing the naturally reclaimed fill land's biodiversity. Here is a plan that a landscape architect drew up for us.
