For donating ten dollars to the completion of my goal to hike the panhandle region of the Florida trail and conduct ecological research, you will receive a finished copy of my journal, which will include photographs, videos, gps data and a detailed account of my time spent hiking including logistical data and ecological research including mycological and botanical research as well as an overall evaluation of regional habitat health and functioning. This journal and supplementary material is part of an independent research project which I am conducting for New College of Florida located in Sarasota. I have through hiked the Appalachian trail and am interested in exploring the cultural implications of long trails such as the Florida trail in regards to conservation and human perspective of nature in surrounding communities. This is just one avenue of research which I plan to explore through this project. In addition to receiving my finished product, nicely arranged, I will also give you my social media information so that you can follow me on my journey and live vicariously through my travels in the beautiful Florida wilderness!
