First Saturday of Each Month, 11:00 am - Noon

Follow the changes throughout each season in the garden. Hilary, one of our gatehouse managers, and kid at heart, will guide the group to look for new clues, observe monthly changes, delight in different sounds and sights while walking the trails. This series is intended to create enthusiasm for the natural world, bolster curiosity and encourage kindness.

Intended for kids aged 6-12, must be accompanied by an adult. Free, with admission!

Please leave your name and email address at the gatehouse, we will send you a courtesy reminder.

Drop ins are welcome, but we encourage participants to return every month to track the changes within a season. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
