Historic Crafts Demonstration

Back in the late 1800s when the first settlers arrived in Melbourne Beach, they were met with the same prolific vegetation that we see today. Have you ever considered how they would have foraged and used local plants in their daily lives? If this topic is of interest to you, please bring your family and join Dr. Marcie Adkins on the porch of the Old Town Hall History Center as she talks about and makes baskets and children’s toys using locally foraged plant materials.
