Virginia Hand Callaway was a native of Pelham, Ga., where she loved to spend time in the outdoors. She became so acquainted with native plants that she was often called a "self-taught botonist." Callaway was later able to apply this knowledge as she and her husband Cason worked to restore the depleted cotton fields, today known as Callaway Gardens®, with plants indigenous to west-central Georgia. To mark the occassion, organ concerts are scheduled at the Ida Cason Callaway Memorial Chapel from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. While visiting be sure to see the Birds of Prey program at 10:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. in the Discovery Amphitheater adjacent to the beautiful Virginia Hand Callaway Discovery Center.
