  I grew up in scituate, and I must say, if there is ever a need, to know and learn and obscure amount of information about not only the plant "moss". But also the old art if "mossing" then this is the place! It also works as a great punishment alternative for your kids. They think the Smithsonian or natural history museums are boring? They don't even know how boring this place could be to them!
