As part of our celebration of America’s 250th, the Beaufort Historic Site is excited to announce a special lecture/workshop series beginning April 11 during the Carteret County, NC Master Gardener Volunteers’ Plant Sale on the Historic Site grounds. Walk-ups will be welcome, but we appreciate an RSVP so we know how many to expect. This introductory lecture and demonstration will be FREE and will also outline how the new series will engage participants beginning with the Site’s interpretive colonial gardens through the creation of medicinal remedies for the treatment of ailments using historic botanicals, tools, and techniques.The series will be led by Apothecary-Surgeon, Dr. Charles Brett, who specializes in interpreting 17th and 18th century Medicine with a focus on British North America and Maritime medical practices, surgery, and apothecary. He has conducted similar lectures and workshops at Tryon Palace for over 7 years, and we are pleased to have him present this living history experience. Prior to Tryon Palace, he was with Colonial Williamsburg as an Adjunct/Apprentice in the Pasteur and Galt Apothecary Shop.
