It is @uf day, after all, so it should be pointed out @UF_IFAS is one of the best “under the radar” departments at UF. Few understand or recognize the revolutionary and innovative work they do, day in and day out, to make life a little better, for all. #GatorDay

[florida4h @Florida4H]

@UF @IFASGovAffairs @IFAS_Extension @4H #ThankYou @IFAS_VP for your support of #Florida4H programs. Amazing to see just a sampling of the impact @UF_IFAS making for #Florida citizens during #GatorDay at the @UF IFAS Farm Market 🐊 @Florida4HLeader
