Shells in Maryland are not just found in Ocean City! Join us for an afternoon on one of the nature’s most endearing symbols. Did you know that Maryland’s state fossil is a shell? Ecphora gardnerae gardnerae is an extinct species of snail that lived in Maryland 5 million years ago! We’ll have specimens for both display and sale!
