Celebrate our Gifts of the Land: Harvest Thanksgiving. Learn about mushrooms and how to preserve meat and fish with Averell Manes, Ph.D. licensed wildlife rehabilitator, specializing in bats. Then welcome E. Barrie Kavasch (Cherokee) as she presents her excellent mushroom program followed by an identification foray outdoors. Have fun finding our Discovery Carts throughout the museum and play Native games throughout the day.
