The museum hopes everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend.
On Friday we had a visit from two of our amazing long time volunteers,
Anna Meshejlan and Patrick Basloe.
They planted several North Carolina wildflowers and shrubs as part of a long-term project for the museum’s Natural History Center.. A buttonbush, elderberry bush, red buckeye, marsh sunflower, rattlesnake master, brown eyed susan, blue mistflower and some tickseed now make their homes around the museum. The project is part of the museum’s goal to expand knowledge and share the wonderful history and importance of the plants native to our state. When the museum reopens, we encourage you to check out our nature trail and see how many North Carolina plants you can find.
