Chilly weather, brilliant color, and the first snow of the season. What else can it be but November at Mt. Cuba Center!
Coming up this Saturday - your last chance to see the meadow with its fall highlights during Meadow Studies - Late Fall. Take home one last meadow plant too! (November 5, 10:30 AM-12:30 PM, $10.) Also, there are a few seats left for the Historic Ramble: Ghosts of the Past (November 5, 10:30 AM - 1:30 PM, $25). Hear local historian Nedda Moqtaderi share the rich legacy of family farms and active milling complexes that once dotted the land which is now Mt. Cuba Center. Dress for the weather for this class, as you will be outside for part of the day. Also, we wind up another season of public garden tours this week. I cordially invite you to enjoy one more walk through the fall garden before it goes to bed.
Our November schedule includes classes for artists (Nature Art Cards, Thursday, November 10, 9:30 AM-12:30 PM, $20), bird watchers (Autumn Sunrise at the Bird Blind, Sunday, November 13, 7-9 AM, $25) and plant lovers. (Grow Wildflowers from Seed, Wednesday, November 16, 9:30 AM - 12 Noon, $20). No matter what your interest, when it comes to native plants, you'll find something to learn with us. As always, we want to be prepared for your visit. Visit http://www.mtcubacenter.org/ or call 302-239-4244 for reservations.
Finally, don't miss your chance for a free preview of our new distance learning program, Mt. Cuba Center Connect. Check your inbox for a separate message from me with information about registration and enrollment and how this program can make the study of native plants more accessible to you.
As always, I look forward to sharing the beauty of Mt. Cuba Center with you, onsite and online!
Sincerely,
Eileen Boyle
Public Programs Manager
