Grow!
The next time you make scrambled eggs for
breakfast, French toast for dinner, or use a lot of eggs
for the family’s favorite pound cake, save those egg
shells! Once the shells are carefully cracked, save the
larger half of the shell and the egg carton to reuse
for your little garden.
Gather supplies: Egg carton • Egg shells • Soil
• Seeds • Water and a sunny window ledge.
Local Landmarks

Let’s get started:
• Save the larger half of the cracked egg shell.
• Put shells in the carton and fill with potting soil.
• Plant seed in the shells.
• Gently water and keep evenly damp.
• Place in sunny window.
When warm enough, transplant the plant outside
and watch your plant babies grow!
Growing plants really grows on you! From flowers
to fruits, herbs, & vegetables, learn to grow all kinds
of plants, & you will never go hungry. Nothing tastes
better than fresh, local, homegrown goodness. ��
Honeysuckle Cottage
Originally called “Good Luck,” the Honeysuckle
Cottage was built by J.W. Tufts in 1895, the year
Pinehurst was born. Housing 3 rooms, Tufts built
the cottage for $700 and maintained it as a seasonal
rental for $150. Nestled in the heart of the Village
on 65 Cherokee Road, the Cottage lies between the
Pinehurst Hotel and the old Post Office where it has
greeted locals and visitors for generations.
Loved by many owners, the first private owner
Mrs. Parker W. Wittenmore bought the house
on March 29, 1916. Enduring a fire in 1950, the
Honeysuckle has retained its original charm through
many restorations and renovations. As charming as
ever, the Honeysuckle remains a simple beauty. ��
