  • 🍂 Embrace the autumn weather 🍁 while doing something good for the Shiloh Museum: volunteer for our Fall Grounds Cleanup! What a great way to experience the native flowers, shrubs, and trees on our grounds that also provide shelter for pollinators, produce for education programs, and historical garden education.

Volunteers will assist the groundskeeper with raking, weeding, and cleanup of Shiloh’s grounds and gardens.
Volunteers aged 13 and older are welcome! This opportunity is great for students and people needing service hours without weekday availability.

  • 📍📷 Where is this? And why is there a live 🐄 cow on a parade float? It’s highly possible this is somewhere in downtown Fayetteville, but we really don’t know for sure. There are some majestic buildings in the background, including what appears to be a church on the left. We think this is an agriculture parade, possibly connected to the University of Arkansas, but we simply don’t know. This is why we have #PhotoIDFriday!

What do you think? (Bonus points if you can identify any of the individuals.)
