About the Organization

We are a museum on the Outer Banks that focuses on Native people across the country. Our Nature Trail, however, puts focus on the indigenous people that once populated the island. With so many invasive plants being brought in for tourist home decoration, we are working on bringing native plants that used to be prevalent. We are also working on a trail book that will be including plants that were known to be utilized by the indigenous people of the island. In the future, we will be creating a similar trail book to bring attention to native pollinators that need our appreciation and awareness like wasps and beetles as well as our native bees. With the donated plants we’re hoping to receive, they will be placed along the trail out of direct reach. There is also a possibility for them to be placed in a planter box in front of the museum to help protect some from storm surge.
