From Claudia Larsen – Florida Wildflower Foundation Seedlings for Schools Grant Administrator  email:Seedlingsforschools@gmail.com

 

Online applications for the 2021 “Seedlings for Schools Grant”

 will be accepted March 1 – June 15, 2021.

 

The Florida Wildflower Foundation is optimistically opening online grant applications for the 2021 Seedlings for Schools grant program.  The uncertainties in school openings created by the Covid pandemic forced our 2020 grant program to be postponed; but we are looking forward to working with our 2020 grant recipients as well as new schools that qualify in 2021.

 

Public and private pre-K to K-12 teachers in Florida may apply for this FWF grant which includes a collection of Florida wildflowers from a Florida Association of Native Nurseries member and online guidance on garden establishment from the Seedlings for Schools grant administrator.

Qualifying schools must have an existing garden area on campus and plans to use the garden to support STEM school curriculum.

Plants will be shipped to schools in September 2021 for fall planting.

 

Seedlings for Schools Grant Administrator Claudia Larsen reports “25 new grants will be awarded in 2021 and provide 12-15 small native ecotype wildflower plants to establish or enhance an existing school garden area.  These plants are chosen to fit smaller garden spaces and to thrive year-round.  Wildflower gardens can beautify school grounds, provide habitat for local butterflies and help connect corridor pathways for pollinators.”

 

Visit the Foundation’s grants page for more information and pictures of previous school wildflower gardens. The Seedlings for Schools new webinar is available after March 17 with detailed steps for grant applications and creating your school’s Florida native wildflower garden. https://www.youtube.com/user/flaWildflowers/playlists

National Wildlife Control Operators Association (NWCOA) represents wildlife control operators around our country and provides its members top-level training and continuing education courses recognized by state regulators.

As we begin to slowly move on from COVID cancellations and closures, we would like to offer our members a much-needed Venomous Snake Safety Course on July 14 and 15 around the Orlando/ Kissimmee area, if possible. 

Our course would likely be 1-2 days and may benefit from 2 classrooms (for 2 concurrent courses with 17 people each) if possible. One classroom will be sufficient if that's all that's available. (The number of classrooms and participants will be better known once we begin advertising for this. We believe we may have to cap the number of spaces for this given perceived interests.) The training course consists of a half-day of classroom (i.e., PowerPoint and discussion) instruction before a half-day of live snake practice. FWC has indicated their willingness to assist in providing live snakes for this portion. All techniques are very low risk, as this is an introductory course. My team consists of two highly qualified instructors to maintain safety for participants and snakes at all times. 

Please share this inquiry with partners who might be willing to help us out with a venue. We're happy to make donations (financial or training services) to partnering institutions. We're striving to keep costs low for our members and NWCOA.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, and thank you for any help you might provide.
