Not Just The Peanut Man
The young child known as the "Plant Doctor" tended his secret garden while observing the day-to-day operations of a 19th century farm. Nature and nurture ultimately influenced George on his quest for education to becoming a renowned agricultural scientist, educator, and humanitarian.

We took in this site with a basic knowledge and understanding of George Washington Carver, but we left with a much broader knowledge and understanding of a Man that had great influence and impact on modern farming and horticulture despite the hardships and prejudice he faced. We first took in a short movie at the Visitor Center, this was a great start to learning the entire life's story of George Carver. After the movie we took in all the Visitor Center had to offer. We then headed out to the trail loop and had a relaxing walk with Daisy who was working on her Bark Ranger program. The trail is a little over a mile and was very relaxing. After she finished her program, she was awarded her second Bark Ranger tag. This park can be seen a few hours.
