In this episode, we continue our deep dive into the life and legacy of Henry Flagler, focusing on his transformative role in shaping Florida’s fresh produce industry. Following up on part one, which explored Flagler's rise from grain merchant to Standard Oil powerhouse, we now turn our attention to his ambitious projects in Florida.
Join John and Patrick as they uncover the stories behind the founding of towns like Pompano Beach and Hastings, the rise of Florida’s fresh produce industry, and Flagler’s ambitious railway extension to Key West. From devastating freezes that shifted the state’s citrus belt to Flagler’s innovative farming ventures, this episode paints a vivid picture of how one man’s vision helped shape modern Florida.
Don’t miss the fascinating history of Flagler’s railroads and their lasting impact on Florida’s agriculture.
