We are very excited for our third annual Earth Day Celebration and Plant Swap. 

Come visit members and organizations, Cape Hatteras Electric Cooperative (with their electric vehicle), Hatteras Library, Surfrider Federation, NPS, NC Cooperative Extension, Master Gardeners and more.

There will be a planting activity and seed ball making activity for the kids. We will also give away native plants!

Chicamacomico Banks Fire & Water Rescue will host the grill. There will also be a wide variety of plants and baskets raffled off, with proceeds benefiting our Association.

This year we will host a workshop on seed saving techniques presented by Josie Walker of the Black Seed Saving Collective at 11 am. Come learn how to save to plant your favorite foods and flowers year to year – and share with the Hatteras Seed Library.

PLUS we will be bringing back the PLANT SWAP! Love or want to try plants but have a limited budget? Want to try something new but unsure if it will live on Hatteras Island? Overrun with plant babies? Bring extra plants (trees, bushes, flowers, vegetables) for indoor or out to share and “swap” with others. Have extra bulbs, seed packets or live plants from a multi-pack? Those are welcome too! You don't have to bring plants to participate but we just ask you to make sure we leave plenty to go around.
