May 16th – Honeybees & Hummingbirds

Saturday, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

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. 

On our Outdoor Adventures, 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
