My Daily Morning Walk. FDR Historic Site

From parking lot and behind Library

Pass by the garden. The garden is a historic restoration of the original home garden. Visitors may view the many different varieties the Roosevelt family grew and put on their table. Today the garden continues in the spirit of the Roosevelts by addressing food insecurity in our local community through our park partnership with Dutchess Outreach.

  1. Glad to see your long walk. Admire the apple trees but don’t get too hopeful that you can grow them here in NC.
