How Flowers Changed the World

Join us as we explore the variety of flowering plant life on the beautiful grounds of Indraloka Animal Sanctuary!  Mike Freidlin is currently on Faculty at Lackawanna College, teaching Environmental Quality, Evolutionary Biology, Climate Science, and Field Dendrology. In his role as middle and high school science teacher for the Abington Heights, Pennsylvania school district, (a role he held from 1989 until his retirement in 2015), Mike acted as the Middle and High School Ecology Club Advisor. During that time, he led more than 700 student members of the Tropical Rainforest Ecology Club on trips to such destinations as Panama, Costa Rica, and Ecuador, where they learned about rainforest protection, the rights and concerns of animals and indigenous communities, and students’ roles and responsibilities as global citizens. Mike’s teaching expertise extends to special needs and emotionally traumatized children as well as gifted children.     Pay what you can!  Registration is required.  Click the button below to register and make a donation of any amount to attend.
