Join Wild Ones Appalachian Chapter at the Emory & Henry Cemetery in Emory, Virginia, as we walk the grounds of this historic cemetery and see the newly developed native plant meadow at the edge of the burial grounds. The E&H Cemetery Board and the University have partnered with the US Fish and Wildlife Partners program to create a field of native plants and flowers that stretches more than 2 acres. We’ll meet some of the volunteers and hear about the process.
The tour is free and open to the public.
