Turtle Time – Saturday & Sunday

Scavenger Hunt – Tuesday - Sunday
Always check the mini library just outside the gates to pick up a seasonal scavenger hunt or book. 
 
Fairy Tea 
Immerse yourself in the magical world of fairies on Sunday, August 18 from 10 am–noon at Fairy Tea.  Children will have the opportunity to explore the garden, make a nature-themed fairy wand, enjoy a light “tea,” and make a teacup planter to take home, all in the company of garden fairies. This program is suited for any children 3+.  Children under the age of 3 are free with an accompanying adult/child ticket.
