Description
Adopted in 1885, the North Carolina flag is so important to the state’s culture that it has an official salute that was created back in 2007.
The North Carolina flag can be flown from the tallest summit of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the span of beaches along the country’s coast. Whether you live in a small town or big city, the flag is a staple of North Carolina’s culture and deserves to be flown wherever you reside.
THE OUTDOOR NORTH CAROLINA FLAG
Made in the USA, our outdoor North Carolina flags are 100% nylon with sewn edges with brass grommets and canvas header.
