The Appalachian Garden Exhibit

Appalachian Gardens

Seeds were saved from one planting season to the next, and often passed down through many generations. This practice has remained alive in southern Appalachia, preserving countless old-fashioned "heritage" seeds. Several of the plants growing in the museum's garden are descendants of seeds passed down by different families in the region and are noted on the plant labels located throughout the garden.
