North Carolina Museum of History
Downtown Raleigh may not be the first place you expect to find North Carolina crops growing in abundance. However, thanks to a collective effort spearheaded by the N.C. Museum of History, corn, peanuts and tobacco are just a few of the plants flourishing right around the corner from the State Capitol. Large concrete pl...anters in front of the museum are now home to a showcase of North Carolina’s agricultural legacy.
The museum worked with staff from the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to develop the gardens, which give visitors and passers-by a hands-on opportunity to learn about historical crops and plants. In addition, visitors can learn more about the environment, food supply and how North Carolinians have used plants.Read More
