Hometown Hero: Marcella Grendler from the North Carolina Botanical Garden
This week’s Hometown Hero, presented by Hendrick Southpoint, is Marcella Grendler a volunteer with the North Carolina Botanical Garden.
“When I started working in 2005, she was one of the volunteers and her reputation preceded her for being just always there,” said Margo MacIntyre, the curator of the Coker Arboretum. “Ever since I came to work at the North Carolina Botanical Garden, she was one of the most memorable things about working.”
Grendler was away from the garden for a few months last year, partly due to a serious personal illness and partly due to the pandemic, which forced the garden to close for volunteers for four months.
