Meet Cassie

Hey there! I’m Cassie Clark, a Carolina girl who grew up in two towns on opposite sides of North Carolina. My family has lived here for 8 generations, so my love for my home state is something I got honest. I’m passionate about sharing all the things that make North Carolina living so sweet – the history, the great outdoors, the culture, and the laidback lifestyle. That’s what Where the Dogwood Blooms is all about. It’s my love song to life in the Old North State; an ode to sunshine & hurricanes.

Growing up, I spent a lot of time on the waterway. Growing up, I spent a lot of time on the waterway. My aunt lived in Myrtle Grove just outside of Carolina Beach. ๐ŸŒŠ

My cousin and I would walk down to the water and chase ghost crabs along the shore. When the tide was low, weโ€™d watch the oysters spit.

Did you know oysters spit? Itโ€™s true. If you donโ€™t believe me, you can go watch them for yourself at low tide. They look like little fountains spewing streams of water into the air. ๐Ÿ’™
