Froghaven

        Farm

 

Welcome to Froghaven Farm. Froghaven Farm, located in Bon Aqua, Tennessee, is run by Lisa Powers, Biologist/Herpetologist. While there is a real place called Froghaven Farm, Froghaven Farm is more a collection of the diverse ideas and talents of Lisa. Contract biology, web design, photography, educational programs and educational material design are some of the services offered by Froghaven Farm. Lisa is a seasoned speaker and presented a program on the Salamanders of Tennessee at the 2008 International Herpetological Symposium.

You can view some of Lisa's photography and learn a little about, 'Life Around The Pond" at Shelby Bottoms Nature Center in Nashville beginning March 13, 2010. A reception will be held March 13, 2010 from 3:30-4:30 p.m. The public is invited.

Photography

Naturally, Lisa's photography follows her innate interest in Nature. While reptiles and amphibians are perhaps her favorite subjects; insects, fish, birds, mammals, and wildflowers are surely not overlooked.
