About this business

The National Park Service preserves the site of George Washington Carver's birthsite and childhood home. 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.

Take your time and soak up the experience. GWC was a spiritual man who loved knowledge!

I visited with my mother and sister-in-law. We all enjoyed it very much and think it would be a great place to take middle school, junior or senior high students for a field trip.

I thought there was going to be a huge peanut sculpture or something! No dice.

This is the first national monument dedicated to a African-American and the first dedicated to a non-president. The site preserves the childhood home where Carver grew up.
