Celebrating Women's History Month

Lois Maxon is Eden Gardens State Park's benefactress, leaving her historic and extensive grounds to the Florida Park Service in 1968.

She came from the publishing world of New York, traveled the world collecting antiques and "found her Eden" among the live oaks of Point Washington.
