Saturday, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM April 11th – Arbor Day Everyday Arbor Day is a day to reflect on the importance of trees in our environment. We have an abundance of beautiful trees throughout the gardens. At April’s Outdoor Adventures, learn more about our trees as we explore their role in our environment, their unique leaf shapes, and what animals use trees as their homes. Join us in the gardens as you and your family explore and learn about the outdoor world through crafts, scavenger hunts, activity sheets and educational displays. Each program will focus on a specific theme, and our Van Vleck Education team will guide your family through this interactive learning experience. This program is entirely outdoors, weather dependent. Registration is required and includes everything you need to participate in the program. Designed for children ages 4 -11 but all are welcome. Fee: FREE for Members of Van Vleck; $15 per family for General Public Registration required by 1 day prior to each class Sponsored by Upcoming Outdoor Adventures: May 16th – Honeybees & Hummingbirds What do bees and hummingbirds have in common? They fly and they are pollinators! Join us to learn about your local pollinators, how they make a positive impact on our environment, and what we can do to help them on their mission.
