Plan Your Visit
 
Carver Bust
The Carver Bust offers visitors the chance to hear George Washington Carver's voice reciting the poem "Equipment" by Edgar Guest.
 
Carver Nature Trail

The rustic Carver Nature Trail offers a canopy of different native Missouri trees with lush ground cover.

Be sure to plan at least one hour for an easy hike. For many visitors walking the 3/4-mile Carver Nature Trail is a tranquil experience. One can clearly capture the same enthusiasm young George showed for all of nature.
