Botanical Adventures!

The strongest tree...looks like it's upside down!
Hugging baobabs


In an effort to stir up our normal routine of beach time,  Raven Runs, cooking and chilling, we ventured off South Beach and headed to the Fruit & Spice Park in the Redlands. The park is an agricultural haven near Miami with real live Baobab trees, a wonderful variety of bamboo and some other fruity and spicy treasures (miracle fruit, fresh tamarind, starfruit, etc.) in a park that boasts 150 varieties of mango, 75 varieties of bananas and the list goes on! If you ever have a chance, definitely visit!
