Tampa Bay Chapter, Rare Fruit Council Int'l

Tampa Bay Chapter, Rare Fruit Council Int'l The Tampa Bay chapter of the Rare Fruit Council seeks to educate & provide resources for gardeners.

Founded on December 3, 1978, in Temple Terrace, Florida, the Tampa Bay Rare Fruit Council is a not-for-profit service and education oriented organization. Our membership includes amateurs and professionals, novices and long-term gardeners, young and the not-so young. We all learn from each other and encourage members to share their experiences, knowledge, and enthusiasm about growing exotic rare fruit edibles.

Here’s a look inside our latest Tampa Bay Rare Fruit Council meeting!

From seed swaps to rare plant raffles, this is where Florida’s rare fruit lovers come together to grow, learn, and share. 🌱

This month, we welcomed Dr. Jude Grosser from the Citrus Research & Education Center.. his talk on citrus innovation and breeding was incredible!

If you’re passionate about tropical and rare fruits, join us and connect with a community that loves growing just as much as you do. 🌿
