Project Description

Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, FL is a jewel of botany and biology nestled along Florida’s Gulf Coast in Sarasota, FL.

In 2015 MSBG hired Q Media to produce both adult and children’s tours for the gardens to be available to the public via dial-in cell phone service. The resulting tours showcase Selby’s history and also their dedication to studying and protecting plant species from all over the world.

The sample here is from the children’s tour. In the tour Emily the granddaughter is the expert on the plants of the gardens and takes her grandfather on a journey through the gardens and its beautiful offerings.
