We would like to thank the NC Department of Transportation for meeting this week with our Lumbee Tribe Agriculture and Natural Resources Department and the Cultural Center team

We would like to thank the NC Department of Transportation for meeting this week with our Lumbee Tribe Agriculture and Natural Resources Department and the Cultural Center team to kick off a new partnership initiative to incorporate wildflower plots throughout the Lumbee Tribe Culture Center. These wildflower plantings will serve many uses including beautification, increased pollination in our community gardens and forested areas, support diverse ecosystems and re-establish populations of pollinating insects and wildlife. These plantings also continue our goal to expand and steward the lands of our people.
