SUMMARY:Muskegon Heritage Museum Spring Break Speaker Series - Milkweed and WWII: Noxious Weed or Strategic Wartime Material
DESCRIPTION:This year the Muskegon Heritage Museum of Business and Industry will again be hosting a Spring Speaker Series.  We will be looking at an exhibit in process about Black-Owned Media\, and we will also be looking at a little-known WWII salvage material.  \nBoth evenings are free to the public\, but reservations are requested and light refreshments will be provided. \nRegister here: https://bit.ly/MHMBISpringSpeakerSeries \n4/3/25Milkweed and WWII: Noxious Weed or Strategic Wartime Material \nJoin us\, as Andi Kantola from the Muskegon Conservation District and Wendy VanWoerkom from the Lakeshore Museum Center help guests look at the milkweed plant.  We will discuss the plant’s natural history and importance to habitats in our area.  We will also look at how it transitioned from its status with farmers as a noxious weed in the 1940’s to its wartime role as a strategic material.  Don’t miss out on this chance to hear about the contributions of Muskegon citizens to gather this most unusual salvage for the WWII effort. \n  \n\n
