The vibrant, dynamic Everglades ecosystem provides the perfect outdoor classroom for field studies. Educators have several options for bringing students for a visit to the park. 

Local 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students can participate in one of our curriculum-based ranger-guided programs. Teachers may also elect to schedule their own self-guided visits. Other groups seeking a ranger-led program may submit a request for a special program, depending on ranger availability.

Many of the orchids found within the Everglades are "epiphytic," growing on host trees that are used for support. This adaptation allows a variety of plants to grow in an otherwise harsh environment.
