By the 1930s, millions of acres of Florida land were devastated by clear-cutting, poor farming practices, and phosphate mining. Many small farmers were destitute, and unemployment was widespread. Senior curator Michelle Hearn discusses the role of the Civilian Conservation Corps in massive reforestation efforts, the establishment of the Florida state park system, and infrastructure projects. About 40,000 young men would serve in Floridaâs CCC units, allowing them to support their families during the Depression.
