Spring is just around the corner which signals the reopening of the Discovery Center. Drop by with your child on Saturdays from 9:00am – 1:00pm for hands-on exploration of fascinating nature topics! Activities include stories, crafts and experiments. You can also take out one of our backpacks, which has binoculars, field guides, a magnifying glass and everything else you need to explore the Arboretum. No pre-registration is necessary.
