Wildflower Folklore
Presentation
Join the naturalist at Nankin Mills Interpretive Center for an indoor
presentation about our native wildflowers and their fascinating folk history.
Learn medicinal, culinary uses, and superstitions associated with plants. Did you know there
are anti-cancer chemicals in May-apple, or that a mountain superstition says “If you pick a
trillium, it will rain.” Also from our agricultural past: When hepatica blooms, it’s time to
plant crops.
