Environmental reporter and filmmaker Ben Raines will describe the secrets of an ancient underwater cypress forest recently discovered south of Alabama’s Gulf Shores in the Gulf of Mexico. The cypress forest dates back to an Ice Age more than 60,000 years ago, when sea levels were 400 feet lower than today. Raines’ documentary about the forest was released in June 2017. The event is included as part of regular Gardens admission, which is $14 for adults, $8 for ages 5-12 and free to Bellingrath members and to ages 4 and younger. Reservations are requested; to reserve, call 251-973-2217 or email bellingrath@bellingrath.org.
