Food and Travel Nation with Elizabeth Dougherty
DESTINATION UNKNOWN - FLORIDA'S GARDEN OF EDEN
The TRUTH about Food and Travel
Original Broadcast Date: 7/08/24

Destination Unknown - Bristol, Florida: Elizabeth's journey takes us to the small town of Bristol in the Florida Panhandle, believed by some to be the original Garden of Eden. This may sound far-fetched, but consider this. Ten generations after Adam & Even called Eden their home, according to the bible, God called Noah to build an ark made of "Gopher Wood." Some botanists believe that a very rare tree that has ONLY been found along the banks of the Apalachicola River, Torreya taxifolia, is in fact, gopher wood. Is it possible that Noah built his ark in Florida and for months, floated half way around the world until coming to rest on Mt Ararat in Turkey?

We'll never know for certain, but we do know that scientists are working hard to preserve the last remaining, nearly extinct Torreya trees in an area of Florida that some call paradise.
