Maine Points: Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens
Posted on by dmartignetti
Danny speaks with Katie Hey Marketing & Communications Director With Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens.
At over 325 acres, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is New England’s largest botanical garden. Home to thousands of different types of plants and visited by hundreds of thousands of guests each year, the Gardens is an inclusive place of learning, beauty, and whimsy around every corner. The mission of the Gardens is to inspire meaningful connections among people, plants, and nature through horticulture, education, and research.
Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is a 501(c)(3) organization. We generate around 50% of our revenue from tickets, retail, and culinary. The remaining 50% comes from donations, memberships, grants, and corporate sponsorships.
It's a tale as old as time, or at least as old as TikTok: chicken nuggets lovingly topped with a dab of caviar. McDonald's is embracing the trend this Valentine's Day with a limited-time McNugget Caviar kit. The free kit, which will be available on McNuggetCaviar.com on Feb. 10, pairs a one-ounce tin of Paramount's Siberian sturgeon caviar with a $25 McDonald's gift card to buy McNuggets.
