Captain Citrus, a program from the Florida Department of Citrus, came to Samuel Gaines Academy to speak with our second graders about Florida citrus. The second graders were highly engaged, throughout the interactive and energizing presentation. They learned more about how citrus trees grow, as well as, the nutritional benefits of Florida’s citrus fruits and juices. Their new knowledge was treated with the opportunity to sample oranges, grapefruits, tangerines, and orange juice at the end of the presentation.
