Once upon a time there was a small agricultural community founded by a group of immigrants looking for a better life. The whole enterprise was successful for a brief moment in time. Now it exists as the name of a road in Boca Raton and in the beauty of the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens. Take a TALK Down Memory Lane as we revisit the forgotten town of Yamato, Fl.
